I recently lost my charismatic, kind, talented 15 year old nephew Ace to suicide. He is one of several young people to take their life in our local area this year. He is one of the 8 people that die each day in Australia by suicide. He is part of the alarming statistic that 75% of people that take their own life are male.
The Gotcha4Life foundation was established to address declining mental health and to reduce suicide in our men and boys. Tomorrow Man is an initiative of the foundation that run workshops that aim to build emotional muscle and disrupt old-school male stereotypes in an effort to create a more positive version of masculinity to live by.
I am desperate to bring this program to the Illawarra to improve the mental fitness and resilience of our kids and I need your help. This initial fundraising goal aims to bring the Tomorrow Man program into the first 6-8 local schools alongside several parent/community events. I am hopeful that it will be the start of a much bigger relationship the foundation has with our area. If you would like to support this cause please donate today.
