Save a Life September
150,000+ Veteran suicides since September 11, 2001
In honor of National Suicide Prevention Month, Home Base has launched Save a Life September to increase awareness and support for Military-connected and first responder suicide prevention. Join us this September and help us save lives.
Home Base, which is 85% philanthropically funded, relies heavily on support from a Grateful Nation, including donors, corporations, foundations, individuals and community partners.
