Support my challenge to prevent veteran suicide and save lives
Right now in Australia, at 42%, suicide is the leading cause of death for ex-serving males aged under 30 years old.
So, this March, I am walking to support Soldier On's mental health services and programs to help prevent veteran suicide and save lives.
It would mean so much to me if you donated to support my challenge so that we can show veterans and their families that they are not alone... we stand strong with them.
Together, let's help our heroes march on.
Thanks so much for your support.
So far, I have helped provide:
10
peer support
sessions
9
employment
support
0
psychology
sessions
...to support the mental health of our brave veterans to help them march on.

My Tribute Post

I am marching for my nephew, who served in the Navy for four years. Since being discharged, he has attempted suicide multiple times. Now, at just 29, he is living with a terminal illness and will most likely not see his 30th birthday.
I march in honour of him and all veterans who have struggled and continue to struggle with reintegrating into civilian life after their service.
Great job, Jane! We're behind you!!
