Help David raise money

For participating in Go For Broke 2024

My Story…

I’m excited to be attempting Go For Broke for the fifth time to raise money for Lifeline. Thank for your support - I am very grateful!

Description

Everyday nine Australians lose their battle with mental health - help us help Lifeline

Over the last few years Covid, natural disasters and financial pressures have impacted on many people's lives. Many in our community are suffering from mental health and anxiety, with more and more people reaching out to Lifeline through their front line mental health services and national 13 11 14 number. 

This year I'm participating in GFB24, a 183km 2000 vertical metre cycling event, from Berowra to Broke. Unlike many cycling events, GFB24 was born off the back of the event founders' own lived experience with mental health and his wish to help others in the community by raising funds for mental health and Lifeline. As a rider in GFB24 I'll be raising funds for three Lifeline offices – Lifeline Harbour to Hawkesbury Sydney.

The money I raise won't only go to helping man the national 13 11 14 crisis number, but will also help fund critical on the ground front line services.

The Gordon office of Lifeline, which we support is one of only a few Lifeline call centres nationally that answers calls 24 hours a day, seven days a week. It's after hours and overnight when many of us and people who struggle with depression and anxiety are most vulnerable and need our support.

At Go for Broke every dollar we raise helps us help fund Lifeline's frontline services and crisis support 13 11 14 number. Please give for this great cause and support me as I train for this tough ride. Help me help Lifeline.

Every dollar makes a difference. Every dollar can save a life. Thank you.
