Next month will see us roll out a project that we have been working on for the last few months.
Each month on the blog we will feature a new creative artist that i admire and respect.
Each week we will showcase work from the chosen artist and also a Q & A.
At the end of the month we will then post up a link to our ebay account where you can bid on an one of kind artwork especially made for FN.
All proceeds from the auction will go to the charity foundation Inspire more specifically their sub-charity Reach Out
Reach Out is a website created to help tackle the growing number of teen suicides and depression.
Here is the Inspire foundations mission statement.
Tragically, the leading cause of death among young Australians (14-25) is suicide. To tackle this issue the Inspire Foundation provides services which aim to improve young people’s mental health and let them know that they don’t have to go through tough times alone. Our flagship service ReachOut.com increases young people’s knowledge of mental health and wellbeing, increases their help seeking skills and ensures that they feel less alone. We provide our services online because it offers young people anonymity; it offers help and support 24 hours a day; it is accessible to young Australians in remote regions and it allows us to help thousands at any one time.
By 2020 we aim to make a global contribution to young people’s mental health and wellbeing with every young Australian knowing, trusting and using ReachOut.com when they need to.
ReachOut.com is underpinned by a program model that’s based on our strength in providing mental health support services that are accessible and relevant to young people.
