My motivation
Fundraising for cause areas including:
Mental health and suicide prevention
Prostate cancer

This is my 15th year growing a Mo, raising funds and awareness on issues with men’s health -
quite generically - for prostate health, testicular health, and mental health.
But I don't want to stay generic.
My father got to live an additional 5 years because of advances in the treatment of prostate cancer. I can't put a value on that.
I have suffered from anxiety and panic since I was a teenager, and spent decades of my life suffering silently, because the stigma and/or shame was too great for me to overcome.
I have had bouts of depression, and occasional suicidal thoughts.
The days after my baby boy died were some of the darkest in my life. I spent the energy I had trying to support my wife and 3 year old child, while ignoring my own needs.
So, I'm asking you to support me once again this year.
But not for generic reasons. For very specific reasons.
For a man with prostate cancer, with a son who adores him.
For a scared teenage boy, who needs a hug, a friend, and a person to talk to.
For a man that lost a baby and believes that being strong for his family means ignoring himself.
...and for the man that stands before you right here, who's trying to make a difference in this world.
Thank you.
