THIS FRIDAY NOV 13-Write Love on Your Arms
To Write Love On Her Arms (TWLOHA) is a non-profit movement dedicated to presenting hope and finding help for people struggling with depression, addiction, self-injury and suicide. TWLOHA exists to encourage, inform, inspire and also to invest directly into treatment and recovery. This Friday (To Write Love On Her Arms Day) is a day where anyone can write the words love on their arms, to support those who are struggling, trying and recovering. On this day, support the cause by just writing love on your arms. If others ask why you have love written on your arms, explain tell them you are supporting to write love on her arms day, and how it’s increasing awareness for a non profit organization aiming to help depression and its consequences through hope and community.
