Hi there, we (Ash, Gabi, and Liam) have started this fundraiser with a heartfelt request for support. Our dear friend Kelly Brouhaha, needs our help!
As we all know, Kelly is an amazing singer, songwriter and musician, a hard worker, and incredibly supportive friend. She gives her energy and light to all around her, and is always there to help, whether it's cooking a BBQ, packing up and loading music gear, driving someone to hospital, songwriting, or just comforting you when you're having a hard day.
Unfortunately however, Kelly has struggled with her mental health for some time, putting on a "mask" and laughing through each day acting like everything is okay. This year she was diagnosed with complex PTSD , so bravely decided to stop touring and step back from the industry in order to focus on healing.
She recently courageously has entered a mental health facility to receive the specialised care, therapy, and support that she needs. The strength and balance she has gained at this facility has been incredible. However the emotional and financial toll of her journey there has been overwhelming, and our Kel needs further treatment to continue her recovery. She has been advised by her psychologists that an extension of 2 weeks to her initial program will be crucial and highly beneficial for her mental health and wellbeing moving forward.
Kel is willing to take this step and knows that she in fact needs this extension to survive, however it is finance that is holding her back. Kelly also a realist, knows the hardships and struggles many are facing , and is struggling with the idea of asking people to share her load.
With her permission we have launched this fundraiser hoping there is strength in numbers in all of us coming together to help a friend in need.
Every contribution, no matter how big or small, will make a meaningful difference in Kelly's ability to heal. Think of it as future coin toss in the guitar case, a ticket to a show in future, a little support to show Kel how she has positively impacted our lives by simply being Kelly Brouhaha.
Your generous donations will go directly to covering the costs of the additional 2 weeks of care Kel requires within the mental health facility, giving Kel access to further intensive therapy, all her accommodation, and the resources necessary for her to regain her mental and emotional wellbeing.
Please consider donating to help her get the care she deserves. We only have a short time to pull this together ahead of the extension, but we think as a community we can give Kel the love and the help she truly needs.
Please share this page with others, who may be willing to offer their support. Kelly also does not have phone or email access in her facility, so we are her point of contact.
Also moving forward it is important we all respect Kels privacy & boundaries moving forward in how she wishes to talk about this all.
Thank you so much for your time and support
