Anna's Fundraising Page
Ten years ago this year, they saved mine.
For so many people struggling with eating disorders, these groups are a lifeline. They are a safe place for connection, community, healing, and hope, often when someone has nowhere else to turn. I am living proof of the impact they have, and I know firsthand how vital the Alliance's work truly is. Together, we can support more people, create more access to care, and make sure not one more life is lost to eating disorders.
Any amount you can give makes a difference, but a donation isn’t the only way you can help (though it is deeply appreciated). You can also support this cause by sharing this page or the Alliance’s resources, educating yourself by reading through their website, checking in with your loved ones, starting your own fundraising page, or simply offering a listening ear to someone who is having a hard day. Let someone know that help is out there, and that they are never alone. No action is too small. Every step makes a difference.
And please remember, whether you’re navigating an eating disorder, experiencing grief, living with depression, adjusting to change, just having a tough week, or carrying something you don’t yet have words for: you are not alone.
Thank you for reading this, for being here, and for supporting a cause that means so much to me.
With all my love,
Anna
Did you know that more than 29 million Americans will experience an eating disorder in their lifetime and every 52 minutes someone dies as a direct result of their eating disorder?
Unfortunately, less than ⅓ will ever receive access to care. The National Alliance for Eating Disorders, the leading national nonprofit for eating disorders, has worked tirelessly over the past two decades to change these statistics. During the weekend of February 27 - March 1, 2026, I will be participating in The Alliance’s annual NOT ONE MORE Weekend.
Please support me as I join this global movement to ensure that NOT ONE MORE life is lost, NOT ONE MORE child is taken, and NOT ONE MORE precious moment is destroyed by this insidious disease. All proceeds from the NOT ONE MORE Weekend will directly fund their free, weekly, therapist-led, virtual eating disorder support groups!
In 2025 alone, more than 33,184 individuals from all 50 states and 88 countries around the world attended Alliance groups. The Alliance is the only national nonprofit organization that provides free, weekly, therapist-led eating disorders support groups; free referrals for all levels of care through a therapist-staffed helpline and findEDhelp; and unique and empowering Southern Smash events. Simply put, The Alliance saves lives.
Please consider donating to my page so that I can help The Alliance continue to make a difference nationwide!
