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

Six months ago, I lost my beautiful dad to suicide at the age of 66. My heart has been forever changed, and every day I carry both the pain of his loss and the love he left behind.

On World Suicide Prevention month, I will be running/walking 66 km—one kilometre for every year of his life—to honour his memory and to shine a light on the importance of mental health and suicide prevention.

I’m doing this walk not only for my dad, but for every family who has faced this heartbreak, and for every person who might still be silently struggling. No one should feel alone in their darkest moments. 💛

I would be so grateful for your support. Every donation will go directly toward Lifeline, helping provide lifesaving resources, counselling, and hope to those who need it most.

If you’re able, please consider donating or even just sharing my story to help spread awareness. Together, we can make a difference.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for standing with me, for running/walking beside me, and for helping to bring light where it’s needed most.💛

My impact so far

I've raised $501 so far to answer 12 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.
