The Foundation of Hope For Research and Treatment of Mental Illness
is a 501 (c)(3) non-profit organization established by Thad and Alice
Eure in 1984. The purpose of the Foundation is to fund mental illness
research, which develops more effective means of treatment. More than
96 research projects have been funded. To date, over $2.5 million has
been given to fund local research projects. These funds have factored
into an additional $100 million dollars from the National Institute of
Mental Health (NIMH). The types of projects funded include schizophrenia,
anorexia nervosa, depression, bipolar disorders, autism, post-traumatic
stress disorder.
The Thad & Alice Eure Walk for Hope is the only annual community
event in the country raising money for mental illness research. The Walk
started in 1989 by employees of the Angus Barn, Fat Daddy’s, and
42nd Street Oyster Bar in memory of Thad Eure, Jr. The Walk for Hope started
with about 200 participants raising about $30,000 and in 2006 had grown
to over 1500 participants raising over $350,000.
First we WANT them to have a good time. This is the one time
that those effected by mental illness and their friends and family members
can come to together and feel welcome and free to talk about mental illness.
We are trying the raise awareness of mental illness and the devastating
effects it has in the lives of those who suffer. Next we need them to
be on time and responsible enough to work alone or with a partner. Will
most likely need students to help direct walkers in Umstead Park and after
the walk at the Angus Barn. May be other holes that need filling on walk
day so students need to be to be flexible also.
