6th Annual Mental Health Awareness Month Book Fundraiser benefiting the Keith Milano Memorial Fund

Posted on 1 May, 2018 by in Charity Awareness, Keith Milano Memorial Fund, Uncategorized / 2 comments

Personal Note from Denise:
For the 6th year in a row, I am struggling to find the right words to say thank you. How do you thank a community that has helped you keep your brother’s spirit alive—a community that helped you keep a promise made to him after he passed. Thank you just seems insufficient, but I will say it. THANK YOU.
13 years ago when we lost Keith, we decided he would not go quietly, that we would fight for mental health awareness, fight to bring mental illness out of the darkness in his name.
Our family is so touched by how this community has embraced this cause by joined us in this fight.
Together we can continue to open a dialogue about mental health, together we can affect change.

With Deepest Gratitude,

Denise Milano Sprung

Fund Information:
The Keith Milano Memorial Fund was established to help raise awareness about the devastating and deadly disease that is mental illness. Keith’s spirit and laughter is kept alive through our efforts to increase awareness about mental illness and to raise money for education and imperative research. Keith often struggled with society’s perception of mental illness.  Our hope is that by having the strength to say that Keith was “Bipolar” we can strip away the stigma and help others to be more open about their disease.
If you want to know more about Keith or why Denise does what she does, here is short video/interview that speaks to that!

The Keith Milano Memorial Fund benefits the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP). At the end of the event, participating authors will pay AFSP directly.

AFSP is the only national not-for-profit organization exclusively dedicated to understanding and preventing suicide through research and education, and to reaching out to people with mood disorders and those affected by suicide. AFSP is a fully accredited 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization incorporated in the state of Delaware with primary offices in New York City. Federal tax ID # is 13-3393329. AFSP’s Combined Federal Campaign (CFC) number is 10545. Donations to AFSP are tax deductible.
