Event outcome:
The Out of the Darkness Walk brings together individuals, families, friends, and community members to remember loved ones, support those who are struggling, and raise awareness and critical funds for suicide prevention and mental health initiatives.
Funds raised through the Greater Ithaca Walk help support suicide prevention research, advocacy efforts, educational programs, and resources for communities throughout New York State .
About the Walk The Greater Ithaca Walk is a non-competitive, 1–3 mile community walk centered around connection, remembrance, hope, and healing. The event will include an opening ceremony, activities focused on hope and healing, community resource tables, and complimentary honor beads for participants.
Whether you walk in memory of someone you love, in support of someone who is struggling, for your own journey, or simply because you believe in creating a community where no one has to face difficult moments alone, everyone is welcome.
Join Us We encourage community members of the Greater Ithaca community to join us in supporting this important cause.
Registration is free , and participants are encouraged to register in advance, create a team, fundraise, donate, or simply come out and walk alongside our community.
Together, we can help raise awareness, encourage meaningful conversations around mental health, remember those we have lost, and bring hope to those who need it most.
