From Grief to Action: Amanda's Legacy
In the shadow of an unfathomable loss, there emerges a beacon of hope. Our journey began with Amanda—a vibrant soul whose life was tragically cut short at 27 due to fentanyl poisoning. Her passing left a void in the hearts of those who knew and loved her. Among them, her mother, who transformed her grief into a relentless mission to ensure that no other family endures such heartbreak. This mission gave birth to A.M.WakeUpCall, a sanctuary for awareness, education, and action against the fentanyl crisis.
Understanding Fentanyl: The Silent Epidemic
Fentanyl, a synthetic opioid, is up to 50 times more potent than heroin and 100 times more potent than morphine. Its alarming potency and often undetected presence in drugs have led to a surge in overdose deaths, marking it as a silent epidemic. Understanding fentanyl—the risks it poses, how to recognize its use, and the steps to take in case of suspected exposure—is vital.
Here, we dedicate ourselves to disseminating this critical knowledge, aiming to safeguard our communities from its grasp.
Our Mission
At A.M.WakeUpCall, our mission transcends beyond remembrance. It is an actionable call to arms to educate, support, and empower individuals and communities in the battle against fentanyl abuse. Through comprehensive resources, prevention programs, and unwavering support, we are committed to creating a future where the threat of fentanyl is eradicated. We envision a world where the pain of loss to fentanyl is a thing of the past, and our collective action fosters hope and resilience.
