Subject: Press Opportunity: World Semicolon Day – Mental Health Awareness Through Tattoos
Dear [Journalist’s/Editor’s Name],
I wanted to share a powerful story opportunity ahead of World Semicolon Day on April 16, 2025.
Project Semicolon is a global nonprofit dedicated to mental health awareness and suicide prevention. On World Semicolon Day, thousands of people across the world get semicolon tattoos as a symbol of their survival, strength, and connection to others who have struggled with mental health or loss.
This year, tattoo shops around the world are coming together to offer semicolon tattoos, and communities are sharing their stories in honor of this movement. It’s deeply emotional, visually compelling, and growing every year.
I’d love to see [Media Outlet Name] cover this movement and help spread awareness to those who may need support or inspiration. More information is available at [projectsemicolon.com or insert specific page link].
Thank you so much for considering this important and timely topic.
Best regards,
[Your Name]
[City/State if relevant]
Subject: A Story Worth Sharing on April 16 – World Semicolon Day
Hi [Journalist/Editor Name],
I’m writing to share something close to my heart that I believe your audience would really connect with.
April 16 is World Semicolon Day, a global day of remembrance and hope created by Project Semicolon, a nonprofit dedicated to suicide prevention and mental health awareness. On this day, people from all walks of life get semicolon tattoos to represent their own mental health journeys or to honor loved ones they’ve lost.
For many, the tattoo is more than ink—it’s a lifeline, a conversation starter, a way to say, “My story isn’t over.”
Local tattoo shops, advocates, and survivors will be participating across the country, and I believe it would make a meaningful feature or human interest story for your outlet.
Thank you for taking the time to read this. I’d love to connect if you need more information or local voices to speak on this.
Warmly,
[Your Name]
