Story
"Mental illness is very common. One in five (20%) of Australians aged 16-85 experience mental illness in any year".
This year for me has been a busy one, and usually I don't have the time to particpate in events such as The Colour Run. But fortunately I have the dates free and I've decided to run and make a difference by fundraising for my chosen charity 'Beyond Blue'.
After recent media awareness in Mental Health week I believe this charity that promotes the awareness/understanding of Australian citizens in depression and anxiety with the hope of individuals seeking help is an important one.
Mental illness unfortunately hits close to home not just with myself but also throughout my family and its always been something openly talked about. However not all individuals are fortunate enough to have this option of openeness and acceptance when dealing with mental illness. It isn't something that should be shunned or pushed under the carpet. Depression and anxiety is an incapacitating disease and accessible help to all Australians regardless of race, gender, age or background is imperative.
I would appreciate any support for my efforts by you making a secure online donation and a message of support.
I would also really appreciate it if you could 'Like' and share my page above or comment below so more people know about it.
Click 'Donate Now' to make a secure online donation and help me reach my target. I would welcome any contribution, great or small, that you could make!
Thanks so much for your support, I really appreciate it!
