Sharing Kindness Suicide Awareness Walk

Thank you to all those who walked alongside us on May 16, 2026 in Hyannis! This year, 584 walkers joined us in raising awareness of suicide, helping us raise about $70,000 for our suicide awareness and prevention programs on the Cape & Islands!

We’re amazed by the support from our community and are looking forward to another event filled with hope, healing and humanity.

Save the date: The 2027 Suicide Awareness Walk is scheduled for Saturday, May 22!

About the event

The signature fundraiser for Sharing Kindness, the Suicide Awareness Walk is an annual three-mile walk in May that brings together community members to remember those who have died by suicide, support survivors of suicide loss, and spread awareness. It is an annual day of healing, telling our stories and forming connections with others through shared experiences.

Why we walk

Since the inception of the Suicide Awareness Walk in 2017, our primary goal has been to raise awareness of suicide. Why? Because the stigma that still surrounds suicide and mental health prevents many from getting the help they need. Through education, we can begin to build a more empathic, resilient community for those who are at risk. The walk also raises funds for our nonprofit, allowing us to continue serving those affected by suicide and grief, providing much needed programming on the Cape & Islands.

Thank you to our generous sponsors!
