Stop the Stigma.
Please donate to help the Do It For Daniel team change the stigma of mental health.
Daniel Olson was an Ishpeming High School all–state athlete who completed suicide in 2012 after battling anxiety and depression for years. He was 19 years old, the oldest of 4 in a close family and a small, tight-knit community. "Do It For Daniel" is the documentary of his struggle with depression and mental illness that serves as a message of hope, coupled with Suicide & Mental Health Awareness and education. Our number 1 goal is to erase stigma so folks struggling and suffering with these medical illnesses are more likely to reach out and ask for help.
A father’s mission
Coach Jeff Olson, Daniel’s father, has brought the Do It For Daniel documentary to 80+ schools in the Midwest & facilitated 150 presentations to communities, hospitals, universities & many other organizations.
