What is The Liv Project?
The Liv Project was created in 2020 after the loss of 19 year old Liv to Suicide, to engage people in one of the greatest challenges of our time – turning the tide of youth suicide. We are a creative collective that develops tools and programs that spark fearless conversations around mental health and suicide prevention in productive, and maybe even fun ways.
Why was The Liv Project created?
The Liv Project was created because the numbers of youth suicide are simply going in the wrong direction. While numerous organizations are doing an incredible job in providing talking points, counseling and more, we have taken a different approach: using the power of creativity to unlock fearless conversations. While we don’t really know exactly why suicide and mental health struggles are increasing so quickly, we do know communication is critical to start the healing process. That’s why we champion a single idea: fearless communication.
Is The Liv Project a company or a 501 (c) (3)?
The Liv Project is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization (EIN 86-1722570). All donations are fully tax deductible as allowed by law. Donations go directly to The Liv Project for outreach to engage with youth and promote fearless communication, as well as to make tools to support open and honest conversations around mental health and suicide prevention.
