"You were created to love and be loved. You were meant to live life in relationship with other people, to know and be known. You need to know that your story is important and that you're part of a bigger story. You need to know that your life matters."
This is the vision of the charity called To Write Love On Her Arms. The charity is a non-profit movement dedicated to presenting hope and finding help for people struggling with depression, addiction, self-injury and suicide. TWLOHA exists to encourage, inform, inspire and also to invest directly into treatment and recovery. Their main goal is to give people hope and reduce the amount of suicides. It all started as a way of helping a young girl - a friend of the founders of TWLOHA - they made t-shirts to sell in order to pay for the treatment of their friend who was going through depression and self-harming. From there it escalated and in 4 years they have received and replied to over 150,000 messages from 40 different countries. It is a truly remarkable charity in need of even more recognition.
I have been a fan of this charity for 5 years now and am still amazed at the beautiful story. So please take a moment to have a look and let it inspire you too. The website is: http://www.twloha.com/index.php
