Pushing Through The Dark

What we are asking for and why?

By the end of today, six men on average will commit suicide.

This needs to change.

On February 22 2019, Aidan D'Arcy and Mike Gostelow will push a 100kg sled for 12 hours non stop from 7pm to 7am to raise awareness for men's mental health.

Their aim is to show that by 'pushing through the dark' you'll always see the light at the end.

Aidan and Mike will be #gotcha4lifemates and with your support and donation (large or small), every bit counts to help mental health awareness.

Campaign Impact
Every $1000.00 resulted in
  • 1 workshop in schools across the country
Organiser statement

We really have no words to describe how grateful we are for all your support and donations. We pushed that 100kg sled for 13 hours straight (yep, 1 extra hour) to show you really can push further when you have nothing left to give, especially with the right support around you. We're already planning the next event - stay tuned... Thank you SO much for all the support.
