Donate Today to Prevent Youth Suicide
With your help, we can save young lives. Your donation provides life-saving mental health support to more young people nationwide.

Our Mission
The Jed Foundation (JED) is a nonprofit that protects emotional health and prevents suicide for our nation’s teens and young adults.
What supporters have said
I lost a family friend and several community members this year. We wanted to be a part of awareness and change so our children had more resources and support should they ever struggle.
I donated in honor of a friend who lost his life to suicide. I hope for a future where anyone who needs help is able to get it easily and quickly. The Jed Foundation does amazing work and I am happy to help support their mission.
