Our Story
Learn about Shelby’s Way
After the death of our son Shelby in 2009 by suicide, Christ and passion convicted me (Mark Cain) to start a non-profit. Shelby’s Way, in Lexington, KY, not only educates and informs, but through our events we raise money to help clients with everyday financial needs, mental health care and medicine along with funds to help families bury their loved ones lost by suicide. Through the spirit of community and fellowship we can prevent another tragic loss and end the stigma of discussing the difficult topics of suicide and our own well being!
