Why I support Mates4Mates
Mates4Mates "The name says it all"
There was a time not that long ago really when I found myself in a situation I believed I had no control over, (or so I thought at the time). Things went from bad to worse, I had complex issues, unbelievable fits of anger, sadness, resentment, the bouts of depression sending me spiralling downwards in a never-ending series of self-medication and isolation. I hated the world but more-so I hated myself, self harm was inevitable. That was until an old army mate pulled me back into the world saying "What are mates for?" Mates are for mates.
As an ex-serviceman and veteran myself I sought solitude in the Mates4Mates program around 2012/13 and honestly it changed my life. I am truly honoured to be in a position now where I can give back to the community and to raise funds to help support veterans and their families impacted by service-related injuries through Mates4Mates.
Mates4Mates need our help to do more and provide much- needed support and rehabilitation services to those in need.
Please help me make a difference by donating. Together, our impact is greater!
