Project Wake Up was founded in 2014 by University of Missouri student Alex Lindley in response to the loss of multiple friends to suicide. With a goal of producing a documentary to memorialize the life of one of his friends, Ryan Candice, the organization gained notoriety overnight through a GoFundMe campaign to raise money for that documentary.
Nearly five years later, the organization has raised more than half a million dollars through fundraising and events including golf tournaments, trivia nights and comedy nights, bringing together the Saint Louis community with the goal of eradicating the stigmas surrounding mental illness and suicide.
Project Wake Up is in the finishing stages of producing a feature-length, Hollywood-quality documentary that will change the way people across the world talk about mental health. Check back for information on how to view and share the documentary.
