SUGAR LAND, TX — May 19, 2026 — Friday morning, May 29th, 2026, a man named Robb Pollard will be walking through Sugar Land as part of a 2,500-mile journey across the country. On foot. For one reason: to fight male suicide.
Robb began his walk at the edge of the Pacific Ocean in Playa del Rey, California, and is making his way east to Jacksonville, Florida — a 60-day journey across the country. Along the way, he’s stopping in communities like Sugar Land to do something simple, but increasingly rare: walk alongside other people and create space for conversation.
Walk With Me, Brother is a grassroots movement and 501(c)(3) nonprofit Pollard founded after his own experience with loss and the realization that men are dying in silence at a rate no one is talking about loudly enough. In the United States, men die by suicide at nearly four times the rate of women — and most of them never asked for help.
This is where Sugar Land comes in. For one morning, this national movement becomes a local one. Pollard is inviting men, and anyone who wants to support them, to step into it with him. No stage. No program. Just a walk.
“I’m not walking because I have all the answers,” said Pollard. “I’m walking because men are dying and nobody is talking about it. I want every man who sees this walk to know: you are not alone. Someone is out here moving toward you.”
At each stop along the route, Pollard gathers with whoever shows up — men, families, veterans, friends — and walks. Sometimes there are conversations. Sometimes there aren’t. But the invitation remains the same: you don’t have to carry it alone.

STATISTICS TO NOTE:
Men in the United States die by suicide at nearly four times the rate of women, accounting for nearly 80% of all suicide deaths nationwide.
More than 49,000 Americans died by suicide in 2023 alone, with men representing the overwhelming majority of those lives lost.
Walk With Me, Brother exists to create conversations men have too often been taught to silence.
