New York, NY (Top40 Charts) To Write Love on Her Arms (TWLOHA) has announced its 14th Annual "Valentine's Day Doesn't Have To Suck" event. While the non-profit normally hosts a Twitter chat, this year, they've decided to change things up a bit and host a live "party" on Saturday, February 14th from 4pm ET-6pm ET on TWLOHA's Facebook and Twitch page. Supporters are invited to dress up and join TWLOHA staff and interns for a mocktail, some interactive games, a Q&A, and good conversation.
The event will continue at 8pm ET for "The After Party" on TWLOHA's Twitch page with TWLOHA staff and a few special content creators. For more information, please visit here.
"With everything that's happened over the last year, our idea of love has been altered, so we want to remind people that love is not one thing but it can often be found in everything. This virtual party is a chance to create space for connecting and for celebrating love in all its forms. We hope spending some time in community-even virtually-can bring some joy to those who need it," shares Social Media + Communication Manager, Katie Mumper.
TWLOHA recently wrapped its 9th annual campaign to honor World Suicide Prevention Day and
National Suicide Prevention Week. With the help of supporters from around the world, the organization was able to raise over $250k for treatment and recovery.
