I'm swimming to save lives
- This is my first year diving
- in for youth mental health
Did you know suicide is the leading cause of death for young people in Australia?
That means that each year more young people die by suicide than in car accidents or from cancer.
This March, I'm making it a goal to swim 20km to help make sure young people in Australia receive the mental health support they urgently need.
By sponsoring my challenge, you’ll be helping to prevent youth suicide.
All funds raised will help young people feel better about today and the future, no matter what challenge they're facing.
This is an important cause to me. Every dollar counts, if you are able to give any amount, $50, $10, $1, or simply just share the message to others. No act is too small. I am pledging to begin swimming every day in order to reach my goal, please support in any way you can!
