Ange’s Black Dog Buddies River Run

By Angela McDonald Join Me

Help me make it meaningful

Mental illness doesn’t discriminate – it affects 1 in 5 Australians every year with symptoms like depression and anxiety. The impact can be devastating, not only for those living with it, but for those around them.

If you know me, you know my family has been affected by mental illness in a number of ways.

That’s why I’m getting active and raising funds for the Black Dog Institute - to support crucial mental health research and support services that help Australians impacted by mental illness and suicide.

I will be running my first half marathon on 2 June 2024 at the Maitland River Run Festival. I won’t be alone! I’ve roped in a number of friends to help me fundraise, train, cheerlead and smash their own goals too!

Help me create a meaningful moment for mental health as I work up a sweat, all for a great cause.

Please donate now. Thank you.
