The purpose of the Edmonton Semi-Colon Tattoo Fundraiser is simple. To raise awareness and provide education around the topic of Mental Health in our own community.  The premise is that this simple, metaphorical tattoo shows supports and promotes awareness of mental illness and suicide. 

 

By coming together for this event, we are creating a culture of awareness and understanding towards mental illness.  Mental illness is something that touches us all; whether we ourselves live with a diagnosis, or we have a loved one who is afflicted. Together, we can make it so those who struggle with mental illness know that it can get better. That you matter.  That you are valued. And most importantly, that you are not alone.
