I'm swimming to save lives
- This is my first year diving
- in for youth mental health
I’m swimming 10km this March to fundraise $3,000 to prevent youth suicide.
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 swimming 10km to make sure young people in Australia have 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.
Donations gratefully accepted!
Want to help fundraise for this cause?

Thanks for your support, Andrew
Thank you - $1K raised in 4 hours
