Outback Angels- Marilyn's legacy

I'm fundraising for a great cause!

For the year of 2021 I have decided to fundraise for R U OK? to help spread their message and help prevent suicide. At the start of 2019 we lost our mum to her mental health fight, everyday I wish she had just reached out in any other way, now the mission is to help guide people that there is always another option, person, conversation to have. And the trauma that remains for those left behind, is for life.

About 8 people take their own lives in Australia every day.

For every death, it’s estimated another 30 people will attempt suicide.

89% of people report knowing somebody who has made an attempt.

I want to help change these numbers.

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.

By inspiring people to take the time to ask, “Are you OK?” and listen, we can help people who are struggling with life to feel connected long before they even think about suicide.

Thank you so much for your support, together we will make a difference.
