This one is about giving back.
When looking at how to tackle men's mental health and make an impact, we found these guys, these communities, offering their time and hosting free events and groups. Giving each and every day and often out of their own pockets. When you’re in the worst place of your life, breathing, friends and hugs are the things that will help you on your journey, people that will be there for you day in and day out.
We want to help these foundations grow all over Australia. We're going to start by trying to raise $20,000 (mostly from the 'man made' ring, of which 100% of profits will be donated) and by raising a ton of awareness.
All of the events below are free. If you’re struggling, go find one, start one or jump into some of the resources below. Founded and created by people who have also been at their make or break or lost loved ones.
Don’t want a ring, but want to help? There's a donate button below too. Support the boys growing <3
