The impact of your support

Scott lived with lifelong social anxiety that weighed heavily on him in his adulthood. When he took his own life, he took with him a piece of our hearts and he is missed deeply by many. He would not want anyone to suffer from his passing or for others to face the struggles he did.

In Scottā€™s memory, his friends and family will be hosting an annual golf tournament to raise much-needed funds and awareness for menā€™s mental health. By donating to Scottā€™s page, you will be supporting HeadsUpGuys and others who are struggling with their mental health. HeadsUpGuys is an online resource specifically designed for men and their families, to prevent the continued erosion of menā€™s mental health and death by suicide.
