Why I Febfast

I am doing FebFast this year to acknowledge the impact alcohol can have on mental health, depression, and suicide. Awareness matters. Conversations matter. Join me in the conversation or you can donate to lifeline if you like!

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 $150 so far - that's 3 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?

Febfast done ✅

Sunday 1st Mar
Thanks for the support, we donated $115 to Lifeline. It was an interesting month and a few social events. Even survived the Allies Hotel last night drinking water. Watching a lot of poor decisions being made fueled by Ethanol. Standing on the outside looking in! 😎

6 days to go

Sunday 22nd Feb
It’s a short month but sometimes felt long. It’s been a wonderful experience to be mindful about drinking habits and cues. The link between anxiety and depression is without a doubt researched and proven over and over again! Cutting back on alcohol is a gift to yourself and others around you and also especially your future self will thank you!
