Danielle's Cambodia Cycle to Happiness
Story
Hi,
On the 4th March, 2015, I'll be embarking on the Black Dog Ride to Happiness through Inspired Adventures to raise funds for Black Dog Institute.
For those of you who aren't familiar with the Black Dog they are an institute that aim to advance the understanding, diagnosis and management of depression and Bipolar Disorder and improve the lives of those affected by these mood disorders.
With one in every five Australians affected by a mental illness in any one year, the Black Dog Institute is dedicated to improving the lives of people living with a mood disorder. Mental illness can affect people of all ages, from all walks of life, and places enormous strain on individuals, families workplaces and our health systems.
Mental illness is overwhelming, crippling and isolating.
My family was personally affected by mental illness and it just goes to show that depression can affect anyone and everyone and the results can be fatal and heartbreaking.
I am participating in this amazing event because I hope that one day the stigma that surrounds mental illness will decrease. I want people to be aware of depression, how it affects people and how to help people dealing with it.
Even if my fundraising helps to positively affect one life it will be worth it.
Please help me in my cause by donating through my page.

Thank you!
