How to Join the Challenge

We all have people, passions, pets, and tools that help carry us through life’s difficult moments. By sharing what has helped you, you remind someone else they’re not alone.

You never know who your story will impact.

We are stronger together.

How to Participate

The #NotAloneChallenge is about reminding each other of one simple message: you are not alone.

SHOW what makes you feel less alone in a photo or video.

SHARE a tool, person, practice or resource that helps you.

CHALLENGE two people to participate.

Post using #NotAloneChallenge and collaborate with or tag @notalonechallenge on Instagram.
