Emma, forever in our hearts

Let's Stop Suicide

In memory of our sweet colleague and friend Emma, we're taking part in Darkness Into Light 2025 on Saturday, May 10, to raise vital funds for local charities and people affected by suicide and self-harm.

Every year, we meet before dawn and walk to meet the sunrise, to symbolize that there is always hope at the end of a dark time. You can take part from different locations in Belgium or abroad, or virtually. Together, we can light up the darkness and create a brighter future for everyone.

Join our team walking at sunrise in Parc Cinquantenaire in Brussels or simply help us with a donation.

In 2023, 1,732 lives were lost to suicide in Belgium alone. Last year, DIL raised €1,803 in support of "Zelfmoordlijn 1813" and "Centre prevention Suicide". This year, DIL is supporting CHS (Community Help Service Belgium). 

Your fundraising changes lives: the money you donate allows DIL to continue their vital work and help those who need it most. With €24 you help the caring therapists answer two more calls to their helpline; with €45 you fund a crisis counselling session in between sessions; with €100 you make the first session of a dedicated therapy session a reality; with €250 DIL can organise the first session of their Resilience Academy Programme to secondary schools.

Thank you so much in advance for your support!
