History of A Celebration of Life
A Celebration of Life began in 2011 to honor the memory of Kyle Craig, a 21-year-old student at Vanderbilt University who took his life in May of 2010. Kyle was a dynamic friend to many; a bright, handsome, and gifted individual across music and athletics, but whose strength of character enabled his growing struggles to be hidden from view.
In the 11 years since it began in Nashville, this annual event has expanded to New York, New Jersey, and Philadelphia, engaging more than 3,000 young professionals in the service of suicide prevention and mental health awareness.
