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:
125
peer support
sessions
119
employment
support
7
psychology
sessions
...to support the mental health of our brave veterans to help them march on.
My Kokoda Track Journey
So far, I have marched:
142km
I’ve conquered Kokoda!
My goal to Kokoda:
96km
