Thanks to all my amazingly generous donors

Hello everyone,

So, it’s the 10th of September. I put my running shoes on and went out for the 9 KM walk, which I have completed a couple of hours ago. I also put out there one last appeal for donations, and I wish to thank each and every one of those who helped me achieve the fundraising goal in little over 3 hours since that post.


I apologise if I could not individually email each of you. It has been a really tough day for me emotionally and physically given the walk and the background, but please know that I am beyond grateful for those donations, which I hope would save lives and keep some people with us for longer on this planet.

I'm walking to remember those lost to suicide and help people in crisis

Tragically, every year over 65,000 Australians attempt to take their own life and over 3,000 Australians die by suicide. 

Lifeline receives over 1 million contacts from people in crisis each year.

Suicide has devastating impact on friends and loved ones.

For World Suicide Prevention Day (Sept 10), I will be taking part in Out of the Shadows and walking for the 9 people lost to suicide every day.

I'm walking to raise funds for Lifeline to provide suicide prevention services and support for Australians in need.

Please support my walk and sponsor me to help those in crisis.

Together, we can ensure that no one has to face their darkest moments alone.

My impact so far

I've raised $2,018 so far to answer 51 calls for Lifeline's crisis support hotline to connect and bring hope to people in crisis.

With your support, we can ensure that no person has to face their darkest moments alone.

I usually would walk as my family’s loss to suicide has been 2 special people. I can’t this year as I recuperate from surgery but happy to support you.
