#WeAreAllJake As we reflect on the past year, it's been an amazing ride of support and generosity and for that, we thank you! If you were a volunteer at Smile Fest or Smile Express - THANK YOU! With over 1,000 people in attendance at both events, it took an army of generous souls to pull off these events - both filled to the brim with community spirit and hope. If you were an event sponsor or partner - THANK YOU! The outpouring of support from area businesses and nonprofits has been overwhelming. The saying "it takes a village" never rang more true when we look at the list of nearly 50 sponsoring organizations that helped to support our events and activities. If you made a financial contribution - THANK YOU! Donations are used to offset the costs of events, materials, and the local advocacy work that we do. As an all-volunteer organization we have no overhead or paid staff so every dollar goes back into the community through our activities and efforts. If you follow us on social media - THANK YOU! Online communities can be some of the best communities and our virtual supporters are no exception. Their positivity and hope was infinitely expressed as we reached over 1,099,000 people in the past year - on Facebook alone. OJAKE SMIES Founded in 2018, Smiles for Jake is a suicide prevention movement that spreads positivity through life-affirming actions, listening ears, and the message that everyone should have hope.
