Cutting My Dreads For Mental Health

As most of you know or if you don't my brother lost his battle with mental health at the start of the year and it's taking me this long to come up with something that's meaningful. I'll be shaving my dreads off to raise awareness for mental heath and suicide. For every 50 dollars donated I'll cut a dread off, I have 73 so it is a long shot but I hope with the help from all of you, I can reach it. With all proceeds I will be starting an organisation of my own called "justincase" and I will be getting bracelets and rings made to start with but I hope I can make it grow into something big! A donation or even a share would mean the world to me! Mental illness, depression and anxiety can be confronting to talk about, however suicide can be prevented. In Australia every single day 200 people attempt suicide, 8 will pass away and of those 8 people 6 will be men. I have to believe that something positive can come out of such a devastating and heartbreaking tragedy. In loving memory and may you rest in paradise Justin Wade Lindsay Henriksen.
