Swiss 8 launches campaign
SWISS 8 has launched its latest mental health campaign for all Australians - A BBQ to Remember.
The campaign encourages Australians to connect with their mates over a barbecue on or around Remembrance Day and to pause and reflect on the sacrifices of men and women in uniform.
As part of the campaign, the charity has started another fundraising raffle, offering a winner-take-all adventure prize. Valued at $180,000, the prize includes a VW Amarok, Patriot Camper, Quintrex boat, Ringers Western voucher, KTM dirt bike, icoolsport ice bath, 12 cases of Bloke in a Bar beer, a year’s supply of meat trays from the winner’s local butcher, and a Weber barbecue.
Army veteran and Swiss 8 founder and CEO Adrian Sutter said creating a campaign to support Mental Health Week, Veterans Health Week and Remembrance Day was a “nobrainer”. “Now more than ever, mental health is in the spotlight. Loneliness and social isolation is the leading cause of depression and Covid has forced this on all of us,” he said.
