My dad, Jason, is always in my heart 🩵
At 12 years old, I lost my beautiful dad to suicide. This irreversibly altered my entire world, forever. For those who know me, you probably know that September is always a particularly challenging time of year for me and my family. Father’s Day, my dad’s birthday, Suicide Prevention Day etc. all fall during this month.
Last year was my first time doing this walk and with the incredibly generous support of my friends and family, I was able to raise over $5,000. This year I wanted to continue to do something tangible to raise awareness of mental illness and suicide, and find a way to honour my dad and many other people in my life who have been affected by mental illness.
Lifeline is such an amazing cause which saves lives daily. Please consider donating if you are able or share to get the message out there.
Please call 13 11 14 if you are ever in a crisis. Stay safe and remember to ask ‘R U OK?’ 🩵
My impact so far
I've raised $1,653 so far to answer 42 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.

Too many lovely people have passed away with depression. Too many families have suffered through it. When it hits your own family, you realise how depression affects people. To all families that are struggling with depression, may God be your comfort. Lots of love Pa xxx

Well done, Sophia. Such a lovely and meaningful thing to do. I have such fond memories of you all from our San Diego days, and I’m really glad to be able to support you. I hope this walk feels like a way of honouring the past, while also letting you keep moving forward and living your own life.
