💔 In loving memory of our dear friend Hunter Fisk, who we lost to the grips of a toxic and psychologically abusive relationship. Hunter was a beautiful soul whose light was dimmed by the darkness of abuse, a tragedy that should never have occurred. 💔 In honor of Hunter's memory and the countless others who have suffered silently, we want to introduce you to "Hunters Heart," a nonprofit founded by Hunter's Mom, Shana. Their mission is to empower young men in their teens and twenties with the education, resources, and emotional support they deserve. Too often, societal norms pressure men to "be tough" and repress their emotions. This leaves them feeling isolated, unheard, and struggling with their mental health. Hunters Heart aims to create a safe and welcoming space where young men can open up, share their feelings, and receive the support they need. Please consider donating to this crucial cause at https://lnkd.in/e8TsHKDK Your contributions will be used for start-up costs, developing emotional support curriculum, and connecting young men with vital resources. Every dollar counts and brings us one step closer to making a difference in the lives of young men everywhere. Let's work together to break down the stigma surrounding men's mental health and ensure that no one else suffers in silence. Hunter may be gone, but his spirit lives on in the positive change we can make in his memory. 🕊️ #HuntersHeart #MensMentalHealth #BreakTheStigma #InLovingMemory
