Ken Wilcox's Story

Ken Wilcox's life felt hopeless, like there was nowhere left to turn. Then a simple act from a stranger on the street changed his perspective, and his life.

If you or someone you know is struggling or in crisis, there are people who can help. Call or text the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 988. If you live outside of the United States, you can find your country's crisis hotline from the International Association for Suicide Prevention.

Do you have your own story of an unsung hero? We'd love to hear it! Record a voice memo and email it to us at [email protected].

Some guidance:

-- Focus on ONE moment that you will never forget.

-- Make sure you're in a quiet, non-echoey room.

-- Speak conversationally, like you're talking to a friend (and please avoid reading from notes.)

-- Let us know how this person continues to impact your life.

-- If your hero were standing front of you today, what would you say? Address them directly.

-- Here are some tips on how to make a great recording on your phone.

Thank you!
