Getting Punched for Suicide Prevention

Getting punched, punching back, and raising money for suicide awareness and prevention!

Wellington

This year I've decided to put down the box o' biscuits, and take up boxing! 10 years of being a lazy gamedev have taken their toll, and this community manager is in dire need of some #training. So I figure why not go all in and go for 14 weeks of punishment?

On a more personal note, my life has been deeply impacted by suicide. I have lost both friends and family, and the ache of those losses is something I'll carry with for the rest of my life. With your help we can support efforts for suicide prevention, awareness, and mental health education!

Training my lazy butt off for 14 weeks, getting punched, hopefully punching back a bit. Raising funds in the memory of my brother, to help provide support for those in need.

It's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward.

I know it's not much, but if everyone did what good they could then the world would be a better place. Rock on, chick!
