I'm running a Marathon every day for 30 days in April to raise money for suicide prevention and awareness around mental health struggles 🖤

Palmerston North, Manawatu-Wanganui

For the month of April (2024), I will be running a marathon (42.2KM) every day to raise awareness around mental health struggles and raise funds for Suicide Prevention Initiatives.

Did you know that we lose someone to suicide every 40 seconds?

Let that sink in.. since you've clicked on this page and read these first few sentences we've lost a few beautiful humans that didn't feel worthy, didn't feel loved, and didn't have the support they needed. This is extremely heartbreaking to me, especially since I know how easy it could be to become one of the numbers in this statistic.

I think that with a collective effort to bring awareness to this issue we can start to open a space where we check in with our close ones, we normalise talking about mental illness and suicide, and we give more support to those who need it the most!

I'd love your help in raising money to go towards the immediate support service Lifeline Aotearoa and to help support my future fundraising initiatives (planning a big one for November 👀)

And lastly, please reach out to those around you today and tell them you love them, why they're awesome, and let them know you're there for them.

Zeak 🖤
