  • in for youth mental health
Every year, too many young Australians lose their lives to suicide—it's the leading cause of death for young people in our country. That’s more lives lost than to car accidents or cancer. I’m Tannar Gill, and even though I’m only 13, I’ve already seen the impact of mental health struggles in my life. I’ve lost several people I care about, and I’ve struggled with my own mental health too. That’s why I’m swimming for Laps for Life—because I don’t want any other young person to feel the way I have. I’m doing this for me, and for the kids who feel like no one understands or that they don’t have anyone to talk to. I want to make sure that no one has to feel alone, or like they’re stuck in a dark place with no way out. Mental health is something we all need to take seriously, and every young person deserves support when they need it most. This March, I’m raising awareness and funds for youth mental health, because I believe in making sure young Australians get the help they need, when they need it. Your donation, big or small, can help provide life-saving mental health resources, so that no one has to suffer in silence or struggle alone. If you can, please sponsor my swim and help me make a real difference. Together, we can make sure no one has to go through what too many young people have experienced.
