Why I Febfast

I’m taking on Febfast to support people in crisis. Life can feel overwhelming, and having someone to listen makes all the difference. Please donate to help Lifeline be there when it matters most.

Every 24 seconds, someone in Australia reaches out to Lifeline 
for help

That’s more than 3,000 people every single day who just need someone to listen. By skipping the sip for one month, I’m not only giving my body a break – I’m helping make sure Lifeline can be there, anytime and anywhere, for the people who need it most.
It’s a small challenge for me, but it could mean life-changing support for someone else.

Together we can ensure Lifeline can continue to be there 24/7 so that no one has to face their toughest moments alone.

MY PROGRESS

Check out my Febfast calendar to see my progress! You can choose a date to sponsor me with a One-OFF Pass. It will give me a night off my challenge while still supporting Australians in crisis.

MY IMPACT SO FAR

I've raised $339 so far - that's 8 calls answered for Lifeline's crisis support hotline.

Every $39 helps power another call, offering hope and crucial moments of connection to people in their toughest moments. Will you back me with a donation?

Getting easier by the day

Thursday 12th Feb
Fabfast has been great for my health, making me aware of the habits and rituals that I had grown into.  Especially that 'end of the day, let's relax, have a glass of wine and watch a quiz show' ritual.  I'm actually enjoying trying something new each night - mineral water with a twist of lime is so refreshing in this weather.  And zero alcohol beer on a hot day is pretty good if you find the right one!

Monday 2nd Feb
Well, I am very glad that February is the shortest month of the year!  Day one of 28 done and dusted, and I am off to the gym for a training session.  
If you are in a position to donate, no matter how little, please help me to raise funds for the very worthy cause of Lifeline.  You know that at the end of all of those harrowing stories on the news we get the blurb "If this story has raised issues for you, you are not alone..."  Let's make sure that there is someone at the end of the phone for those people who need to call Lifeline.
Thanks heaps!  Alex
