What is Save a Life Day?
On Sep 25th, 2025, all the states in the US are invited to participate in first fully national day of free naloxone. Last year (2024), over 650 events from 35 states took part – distributing over 84,000 naloxone doses! Check out some photos here.
“Save a Life Day” started with a two county WV pilot in 2020, and it’s grown bigger and bigger every year.
How can I organize Save a Life Day in my community?

All groups will be supported with monthly planning calls, design and outreach templates, a mega map anyone can use to find your events. (Over 300 care packages with swag and anti-stigma materials were also sent to County Organizers who signed up for a package before Aug 30th 2024.)
