To Write Love on Her Arms

Along with non-profit organizations, there are also many non-profit movements. One that I have found extremely interesting is the movement, To Write Love on Her Arms. 

"To Write Love on Her Arms 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."

The movement started in 2006 as simply a way for people to tell their stories, and for stories to be heard. "The story and the life it represented were both things of contrast – pain and hope, addiction and sobriety, regret and the possibility of freedom. "

The movement is simply about loving one another, and learning to love yourself. People involved in the movement are those who need help, have received help, and those who help. The vision focuses on the fact that we live in a broken and difficult world, and that people need to form communities with each other. 

"The vision is the possibility that your best days are ahead. The vision is the possibility that we're more loved than we'll ever know. The vision is hope, and hope is real. 

You are not alone, and this is not the end of your story."
