Virtual Sunrise Walk

Virtual Walk.png

The Solace Sunrise Virtual Walk/Run takes place to raise awareness for suicide prevention & mental health. Anyone in the world can join from their own neighborhoods & send in photos, videos, or messages throughout the day on June 12th! 

While we will host several in person SSW walks this year, we know not everyone is ready to gather in groups. Our walk's priority is for everyone to be able to get outside, get some fresh air, reflect on their own mental health, and remember those we may have lost from suicide. So if you would still like to participate, we encourage you to find a companion and get out there! To ensure your safety, we recommend walking after the sun has risen or with a group of people. Feel free to share photos, videos, or words of encouragement which we'd be happy to share on our social media pages.

Our mission is to create awareness for suicide prevention, remove the stigma of mental health, and reinforce the message: you are not alone. We continue to ensure our work supports those who are struggling with their mental health, especially right now. So let use this day as a reminder to look out for each other, take time for yourself, and to remember anyone we've lost along the way.

Solace House Marathon 2020

Solace House Marathon 2020

Run for Team Solace House!

As a Charity Partner in the NYC Marathon, Solace House relies on this race as one of it's main fundraising sources. In lieu of the NYC Marathon's cancellation, this year we are hosting our own "team" marathon, where runners can achieve their end of the year goals while also giving back to the community! This is ongoing between now and November - Register here!

Running: Runners are encouraged to form teams of 2 or more people and split the difference of a full marathon (26.2 miles) among its team members. Teams can have members run separately or (safely) together throughout the time frame of Oct. 1 - Nov. 1, 2020. As an example for a team of 4 runners: Runner 1 completes 5 mi, Runner 2 completes 7 mi, Runner 3 completes 10 mi, and Runner 4 completes 5 mi. The team must collectively complete at least 26.2 miles (the length of a full marathon). Teams can run remotely from anywhere in the world.

Mileage must be recorded on a GPS device (watch, phone, etc), screenshot, and sent to sheena.mullan@solacehouseusa.org by Nov. 2, 2020. At the end of the event, awards will be given to teams with the highest mileage & highest fundraising efforts!

Fundraising: Each team will have their own fundraising page to raise money for Solace House throughout their Team Marathon journey. They can personalize their photos & stories to share why they are running. It could be to honor someone's memory or simply to raise awareness for mental health and suicide prevention. Fundraising can begin as soon as a team is assembled in September until November 1st.

2020 has been a hard year for so many - let's turn it around by pushing past our goals & doing good for the community! Please reach out to mary@solacehouseusa.org for any questions, concerns, and/or sponsorships.

Sunday Session

Sunday Session

2020 has been a tough year for many. COVID-19 has imposed a tremendous amount of challenges for Solace House; we’ve had a significant increase of new clients, our current clients re-enter trauma and require additional support, and our staff are facing this pandemic, like everyone else, while being a source of strength for so many. But by far the biggest and most significant challenge we face is the enormous loss of funding due to the cancellation of many, many fundraising events. 90% of our financial budget is achieved through fundraising, and without it, we face a very concerning future.

As New York begins to open up, we'd liked to take this opportunity to come together (safely of course), and enjoy some music, drinks and food with the Yonkers community. We are super excited to have Kickin' Nash perform outdoors at Rory Dolan's! This is a family friendly event; tables will be provided but may be limited.

Safety is our priority and we want all attendees to feel welcomed and comfortable. Many volunteers will be on hand, Solace House and Rory Dolan’s will put in place preventative measures to reduce the spread of COVID-19. We encourage everyone to bring hand sanitizer and masks are mandatory. If you are feeling unwell the day of the event, please do not attend.

Thank you for your support!

Solace Sunrise Virtual Walk

Untitled design-2.png

The Solace Sunrise Walk is an annual 5k walk/run that raises funds and awareness for suicide and self-harm prevention. Due to the present COVID climate and the impact it has had on our lives, we have moved our usual Solace Sunrise Walk to the Fall (date still to be announced).

To commemorate the day, we invite you to join us on June 6th for Solace House’s Virtual Walk! All day participants can head out for their social distance walk around the neighborhood. Feel free to tag Solace House or send in pictures so we can share with our virtual community. We encourage attendees to partake if only you feel comfortable heading out.

Our vision is a world where suicide, self-harm and stigma have been replaced by hope, self-care and acceptance. Our mission is to support people and communities in crisis by providing freely accessible, professional services to all. By participating in the Solace Sunrise Walk you are helping us achieve this mission! Thank you for your support.
