Australians for Mental Health is still a tiny organisation punching far above its weight. We run on the smell of an oily rag. And this month, that rag caught fire.

Can you help us fix the sudden $50,000 hole in our budget?

We refuse government funding. Not because we’re stubborn — but because independence is the only way we can speak truth to power. Too many mental health organisations whisper when they need to shout, worried about upsetting a funding stream.

Our independence is our backbone.

We need to raise $50,000 by Christmas Eve to keep our work on track in January.

Your donation means we can keep saying the hard things publicly — and keep pushing the message out to millions of Australians who deserve a better mental health system.

Every donation over $2 is tax-deductible. Every dollar helps. Truly.

Update: We are more than 50% funded with 1 week to go!
