Memorial and Encouragement Project - Please Read!

Hi everyone,

Hetalians Against Abuse at Facebook is putting together a memorial collage for all of the fans who have died (from any cause, not just abusive ones), and also offering encouragement and help for those struggling with abuse, bullying, self harm, struggling with self image/woth, anything at all. It will be finished and posted here and at the HAA page around Christmas, to provide an extra emotional boost for those who need it to encourage them not to give up.

If you know someone who has passed and would like them to be included in the memorial, or would like to help encourage a fellow fan, please go here for more details.
If you need peer support and help now, please private message Hetalians Against Abuse, or shoot an email to HetaliansAgainstAbuse@gmail.com.

Please help spread the word!

Just a little suggestion:
I like this idea very much and hope that you will get many participants, but the title and the project don't quite seem to match that well.
It says in the description that the collage is supposed to be for any deceased fans, no matter how they died. But if you put it under the title of "Hetalians against abuse", I see a very high risk that people who are unfamiliar with the rules will misinterprete it and think that all people in your collage have died because they were abused. And that could get really nasty if someone identifies a person in the collage and goes on to accuse that person's friends or family of having been abusdive towards the person who died.
I think it would be better to pick a clearer and more fitting title for this project.
