The Mental Awareness Foundation (MAF) strongly advocates for the rights, acceptance and recognition of people dealing with mental illnesses and leads the crusade to break the taboo of talking about su***de and depression. The Walk For Awareness is celebrated by Brisbane as the opening of Qld Mental Health Week and is now the LARGEST mental health walk across Australia & New Zealand. It brings the

community together to support each other and raise my needed funds to run programs that preserve lives through empowerment.
