Dear UTSS Supporters,
I wanted to take a moment to share a heartfelt update regarding the Starry Night Soirée 2024. In the spirit of our mission and in alignment with what we stand for, for several personal reasons, I have made the difficult decision to cancel this year’s event.
I thank the board and auxiliary board for their support in this decision and I feel immense gratitude for all of the wonderful supporters including the artists, donors, vendors and board members who are so generous with their time and contributions. I know this November will feel a little less exciting with no Soirée to be had, but I’m sure you will all go forth this year in your own ways continuing to share our special mission. Additionally, we will continue to support the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention and its Healing Conversations program with your donations. That will not change!
I plan to stay in touch with our plans for the future, but for now, please receive this update with positivity and warmth because that is how I’m sending it. This is the right decision and I know that when (and if) the time is right to plan another Soirée, you all will be right there with me!
I am so appreciative of your support.
Love,
Amy
