Let's Start a Conversation and Make a Difference
This R U OK? Day, our workplace, HVCCC, is coming together across the whole month of September to raise funds and awareness for a charity that encourages something so simple, yet so powerful — asking “Are you OK?”
Sometimes, a genuine conversation can make all the difference. By checking in with our colleagues, friends and loved ones, we can help create a culture where people feel supported, connected and comfortable speaking up when they need to.
R U OK?’s vision is of a world where we are all connected and protected from suicide. Their mission is to inspire everyone to meaningfully connect with the people around them and support anyone struggling with life.
Through our workplace fundraising activities, we’re aiming to bring people together, have some fun and, most importantly, support the important work that helps people stay connected and look out for one another.
Every donation, big or small, can help make a meaningful difference.
Follow along throughout the month to see what our workplace gets up to as we take part in activities to raise funds and support R U OK? Day!
So please join us, get involved, start a conversation and help us remind everyone that asking “R U OK?” could change a life.
