Why I Febfast
I’m going alcohol-free this February to support Lifeline. I know what it’s like to reach a crisis point and need someone to listen — I’ve been one of the 3,000 people who call Lifeline every day. This is my way of giving back and helping ensure support is always there, 24/7.
Why I’m Giving Up Alcohol for a Month
This February, I’m giving up alcohol for a reason that’s deeply personal to me.
I understand what it feels like to reach a crisis point. I know how hard it can be to ask for help, because I have been one of the 3,000 people who call Lifeline every day — reaching out in a moment when I needed support the most.
That call mattered. Having someone listen without judgement reminded me that I wasn’t alone.
By giving up alcohol for the month, I’m raising funds and awareness so Lifeline can continue to provide that same support to others — 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Together, we can help ensure Lifeline can keep doing the incredible work they do, answering calls and offering hope when it’s needed most.
Thank you for standing with me and supporting this cause 💛
