I'm fundraising for a great cause!
I have decided to fundraise for R U OK? to help spread their message and help prevent suicide.
After saving a stranger from ending their own life, I have been nominated in the Gold Coast Australian of the Year Awards as a finalist for Gold Coast’s Local Hero of the Year. As apart of this journey, I am raising money towards a topic that changed my perspective on 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.

I recently broke up with my bf of 10yrs and I need motivation to get my ass to the gym to sustain a better mental health and motivation. I’m usually too poor to donate but I think RUOK is an amazing charity that people take seriously. Thank you for your service. We need more people like you!! 💛
I’ve struggled with mental health before and if it wasn’t for this simple question “R U OK” I don’t know if I’d be telling the story Great campaign, also great motivation to go to the gym. 💪🏼
