Dear Shouters,

It is with a heavy heart that I share that Go Shout Love is taking an indefinite hiatus from operations, effective today.

We’ve always strived to be a lean organization, meticulously stewarding sales proceeds and donations entrusted to us for the greatest impact on the families we serve. However, the current economic climate necessitates a difficult decision: our product-based model is no longer sustainable.

To our monthly subscribers:
We are incredibly grateful for your unwavering support. You’ve been the foundation that propelled our team forward, allowing us to champion so many families. We hope every shirt you received fostered a sense of connection and pride. Your subscriptions have been canceled, effective today.

To those who made it happen:
I extend my deepest gratitude to team members Paige Muller and Seth Carnell, and Board Members Amy Gossen, Kyle Sloan, and Eric Granger. Their dedication to excellence in celebrating families and the joy of working alongside them has been truly remarkable. And to Ron Wallace and the leadership of Russell Cellular, we wouldn’t have made it this far without your support. Thank you!

To the families we’ve shouted love for:
Thank you for entrusting us with your journeys. Your willingness to share your families’ stories with authenticity and vulnerability to celebrate your children has been a privilege to witness.

What’s next?
The short answer: we’re unsure. The Board of Directors will be exploring future possibilities.

What we know:
Since 2014, we’ve proudly introduced 120 children on rare medical journeys to the world, raising their voices and hopefully allowing their families to feel seen, supported, and loved more deeply through our storytelling and over $463,000 in financial assistance. This is a significant achievement, and it’s all thanks to you!

In closing, leading this mission for the past six years has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. I am immensely grateful to everyone who shared, purchased, and donated, enabling us to shout love for so many families on rare medical journeys.

With sincere appreciation,

Josh Veach
Executive Director
