Good Morning,
Happy ChooseDay! Today, we’re highlighting the importance of checking in on those around us for World Suicide Prevention Day on September 10th.
Sometimes, a simple conversation can make all the difference. By reaching out and showing we care, we can help save lives and support those who may be struggling. 🌟
Over 3,000 deaths by suicide occur each year in Australia. 💔 (Australian Institude of Health and Welfare, 2024).
That's an average of about 9 deaths per day.
Suicide is a tragedy that leaves deep scars on families, friends, and communities. However, by raising awareness and promoting understanding, we can help create a world where mental health is prioritized, and no one feels alone in their struggle. Your support can be the lifeline that someone needs.
How You Can Help?
This World Suicide Prevention Day, we encourage you to take action by supporting the incredible work of the Black Dog Institute. 🖤
The Black Dog Institute is a world leader in mental health research, education, and support services, helping people manage and prevent mental health issues, including depression and suicide.

Donate: 💛 Your contribution can help fund vital research, support programs, and resources that save lives. Even a small donation can have a big impact.
Raise Awareness: 📣 Share information about World Suicide Prevention Day and the work of the Black Dog Institute with your network. The more people know, the more we can collectively do to prevent suicide.

Supporting Young People at a Critical Stage of Life for just $21.00
Adolescence is a unique and formative time. Physical, emotional, and social changes make adolescents vulnerable to mental health problems. About three-quarters of common mental health problems emerge before the age of 25, making these critical years for early intervention and prevention.
Your generous donation of just $21 has the power to transform the lives of three teenagers. With your support, they will gain access to BITE BACK, a positive psychology program that equips them with the tools to manage stress and build emotional resilience, helping them lead happier, healthier lives. 🌱
Support the Black Dog Institute and be a part of the change. Together, we can create a world where mental health is understood, supported, and nurtured. 🌍
Thank you for choosing to stand with us in the fight against suicide. Your support makes a difference.
With heartfelt gratitude,
GoodCompany
P.S. Let’s spread the message far and wide—every conversation, every donation, and every act of kindness counts. 💛
