60km for Men’s Mental Health

Help me make it meaningful

This June, for Men’s Mental Health Month, I’m challenging myself to walk 60 kilometres to raise awareness and support for men’s mental health.

The number 60 is significant. Globally, approximately 60 men lose their lives to suicide every hour. Behind every statistic is a person, a family, friends, and a community facing an unimaginable loss and everlasting impact.

It could be your dad, brother, son, partner, friend, or colleague. Too often, men feel pressured to stay silent about their struggles, making open conversations about mental health more important than ever. 

By taking on this 60km challenge, I hope to raise awareness and funds for the black dog institute to support crucial mental health research and support services to help everyday Australians deal with the impact of mental illness and suicide.

If you’re able to, please consider donating or sharing this page. Every contribution, no matter the size, helps support the vital work being done to improve men’s mental health and save lives.

Thank you, Lai x
