Introduction!

Hi
My name is Killara and I'm 28 years old. At the age of 12 I was diagnosed with Depression. Since then I have been living with it and learning to manage it. During those years I had some dark days in which I thought of ending it. I was lucky that my spirit wouldn't allow it and neither would the thought of hurting those close to me. This year I have decided to take part in this walk to raise money for lifeline services, to bring more attention to mental illness and to remember those who couldn't push through those dark days. Any amount of donation will help, if not thats ok to. Sharing, liking and even checking in with those close to you will also make an impact!
Thank you!

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 $652 so far to answer 16 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.
