Save a Life September
The 2024 Save a Life September campaign has been EXTENDED through November.
150,000+ Veteran suicides since September 11, 2001
In honor of National Suicide Prevention Month, Home Base launched its inaugural Save a Life September campaign in 2024 to increase awareness and support for Military-connected and first responder suicide prevention.
Home Base, which is 85% philanthropically funded, relies heavily on support from a Grateful Nation, including donors, corporations, foundations, individuals and community partners.
