We are dedicated to making sure that EVERY donation makes a difference.
As a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, it’s our mission to raise funds for suicide prevention and awareness. Through this, we strive to reduce the stigma around talking about mental health so the world can start to treat it just like physical health. But we are so much more than that, we are building a community of individuals that are unique and have a love for all things RPG. We combined the fun of Dungeons and Dragons with the quest toward suicide awareness and prevention, and it’s been nothing short of amazing.
In reducing the stigma around mental health, we want to be able to help prevent suicide, and not just respond to the aftermath. We want to bring the community together and show everyone that they are not alone!
Our board of directors is made up of 8 individuals, but we have amazing sponsors and partners joining us to host events and grow the Jasper’s Game Day family.
We are not alone in this mission and we are here to help!
Last year (2019) we brought in $25,000. For 2020, we are on pace to break $100,000. We are designated by the IRS as a 501(c)(3) charity. Net proceeds are distributed as follows: 85% go to suicide prevention and Awareness Charities, 10% is saved for future use, and the last 5% is used for administrative expenses. For our online event both years, we donated to the American Association of Suicidology. For our 2020 events, we also donated to an online teen hotline to keep its doors open and to a crisis center that specifically works with the suicide prevention of teens of minorities.
