Why I Febfast

I love wine. Like… a lot. So giving it up for FebFast isn’t easy - but neither is life when things get overwhelming. This February I’m ditching the vino to support Lifeline, because having someone answer the phone at the right moment can literally save a life. I’m doing this to challenge myself to be healthier, reset my relationship with alcohol, and to support people who are struggling more than I am without a glass in hand. We've all been affected by suicide and if giving up wine for a month can raise money for a truly amazing cause that helps keep those who are struggling here, it’s 100% worth it. If you’d normally shout me a drink, I’d love it if you’d donate instead 💛

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 $273 so far - that's 7 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?
