November 7th I step into the ring, giving everything I’ve got to make a difference for youth mental health

Gloves Up for Gumboot Friday 🥊💙

I’ll be stepping into the boxing ring for Gloves Up for Gumboot Friday and the I am hope foundation. This isn’t just about boxing for me it’s about standing up for mental health, a cause that’s deeply personal.

I’ve watched loved ones struggle, and I’ve faced my own battles too. Mental health challenges are real and ongoing, and too many of our young people are fighting them without the support they deserve. If I can help even one person feel less alone, then every punch, every round of training, and every drop of sweat will be worth it.

Over the next 9 weeks, I’m giving this everything I’ve got. But I can’t do it alone. I need your support. Your donation, big or small, will help give our younger generations the tools, resources, and hope they need to keep fighting.

🥊100% of funds raised on this page go directly to Gumboot Friday.

🥊Every $138 raised = 1 FREEcounselling session for a young person.

✨ Every dollar counts. Every show of support makes a difference. Together, we can stand stronger for mental health.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart ❤️
