Locked in!
Super excited to share we have raised $120+ which is more than 12% of my goal!! Thank you to all the generous donations. More to come! π€20Talk Challenge
In order to raise funds for mental health charity 20Talk, I'm going to take on the challenge of sitting in a 2 metre square box for 20 hours with no technology and no talking. This challenge will be a small look into the day of someone struggling with mental health. All I will have is my own thoughts, a journal and a chair to sit on.
- Suicide still remains the leading cause of death for young people aged 15-44.Β
- Only 2% of mental health funding goes towards prevention (Mental Health Commission 2022)
I'm completing the 20 Hours for 20Talk to turn these statistics around. Your contribution goes towards 20Talk's relatable prevention campaigns. They are a mental health charity that makes education cool and accessible, for young people by young people.
Your generous donations go towards:
- Every $120 puts a young person through a one day Mental Health Maintenance cours
- Expanding 20Talk's online resources and 60,000+ social media community
- Running large-scale interactive mental health events
Why am I doing this?
Because as a transgender person I've frequently struggled with my own mental health and felt isolated within society. The leading cause of death for queer people is suicide and Transgender people are twice as likely to die than their Cisgender counterparts. I am excited to detach from my own fears of abandonment and isolation while raising funds for 20Talk.Β
Thank you for taking the time to read this post and for donating to the cause. Hopefully this small challenge can help change someoneβs life.
