AMA Queensland Foundation Christmas Appeal Launch for Mental Health

The AMA Queensland Foundation will launch our annual Christmas Appeal during Queensland Mental Health Week, to raise awareness and much-needed support for Mental Health and Suicide Prevention.

The Foundation is the charity arm of our state’s peak medical body, Australian Medical Association of Queensland (AMA Queensland). The Foundation brings together medical colleagues and the wider community to deliver vital services outside those catered for by the existing system.

So why are we launching an appeal for Mental Health and Suicide Prevention?

This vital cause was put forward during a recent survey of Queensland doctors, with results showing most doctors highlighted mental health and suicide prevention as an area of greatest concern to them.

This Appeal will help raise awareness along with critical funds that support key services, with a focus on identifying those groups who are underserved or vulnerable, so that funds for both mental health support and suicide prevention can be steered where there is greatest demand.

If you would like to support us in helping Queenslanders increase their access to lifesaving services, visit our website for more information and to donate.
