2026 March On Challenge

Why I’m marching on

As some people know I work full time as a Nurse, and often I’m blessed to look after some amazing hero’s in my job, I have heard some incredible, brave and heartbreaking stories, from some of our Veterans who are still with us. 

It is my dream to one day serve the ADF myself, so I want to do my part in thanking our Veterans for their service and giving back to them, especially in tough times.

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:

32

1

...to support the mental health of our brave veterans to help them march on.
