Today is World Mental Health Day 💙

A day to remind ourselves that mental health matters, asking for help is okay, and no one should have to navigate things alone.

For young people, having access to the right support can make a huge difference. We’re grateful to Richard from State of Mind Counselling, one of our valued CMYSF partners, for helping make that support more accessible.

We asked Richard a few questions about mental health, therapy and his work with CMYSF. Have a listen below!

A HUGE THANK YOU TO COCA-COLA ❤️🤍

We are so incredibly grateful to announce that Coca-Cola has generously donated a $5,000 Community Grant to the Corey Maric Youth Support Foundation!

To receive this grant leading up to World Su***de Prevention Day and R U OK? Day makes it even more special. We are so thankful to Coca-Cola Europacific Partners for supporting our Foundation and helping us continue to make a difference in the lives of young people in our community. ❤️

💛 WORLD SU***DE PREVENTION DAY & R U OK? DAY 💛

Today, September 10, we recognise World Su***de Prevention Day and R U OK? Day.

This year’s R U OK? message is “Ask R U OK? Any Day”, reminding us that checking in and starting conversations about how we’re really going shouldn’t be limited to one day a year.

Our friends are asking the question today, but we encourage you to keep asking it tomorrow, next week and any day someone might need it.

A simple conversation can make a difference. 💛
