Join us in celebrating 5 years of Empowering Every Body! Born from a personal mission to ensure no one faces eating disorders alone, AKEDA has become Alaska’s leading resource for treatment and support. As we reflect on our journey, we recognize the urgent need for continued action. Many Alaskans still suffer in silence, and rising eating disorder rates—especially among youth—make our mission critical. We’re launching a campaign to raise $25,000—$5,000 for each year we’ve been in existence. With generous matching gifts already secured, every dollar you donate will be doubled, up to $12,500! Now is the time to act! Your donation can help us expand our reach and bring hope to those in need. Let’s ensure that no one walks this path alone. Donate today and help us write the next chapter in AKEDA’s story! Thank you for your continued partnership and support. Together, we can create a brighter, healthier future for every body in Alaska.
