Making Canberra suicide-free will take thousands of leaders. Thousands of people leading their communities to believe that no one is destined for suicide. Last Saturday, John Veloudos ran 100km to raise money for R4R… and became one of those leaders.
Before the fundraiser, John told us that he believed in our mission, and as he left The Dock for his final lap with friends and family running behind him, his community were saying they believed him too.
The way Johnny took ownership of R4Rs goal, made it his own, and brought his community along with him is exactly what we need to make Canberra suicide-free. Well done to everyone involved, and thank you John.
