Stress Down Day is Lifeline's only national fundraising event, held on Friday 23rd July 2010.
Getting involved is as easy as wearing your slippers to work or school, dressing up or down on Stress Down Day.
Every minute a new call is made to Lifeline's 24 hour 13 11 14 crisis support service.
The money raised from donations will help pay for Lifeline's $1.4 million annual phone bill and train more telephone crisis support volunteers with the skills to answer calls from Australians in need of support.
Lifeline's 13 11 14 crisis suport service has been answering calls from Australians in need of help for over 47 years, so now we are asking you to THROW US A LIFELINE and make a donation.

Lifeline
Lifeline’s 24 hour crisis support service- 13 11 14 has been providing access to a range of mental health support services that connect people with care for over 48 years. Lifeline delivers a range of services that promote emotional wellbeing, encourage help seeking, and addresses suicide prevention and awareness.
Suicide is the leading cause of death for men under the age of 44 and women under the age of 34 (ABS 2009). We believe at Lifeline that suicide is mostly preventable and we all have a role to play.
Each year Lifeline receives over one million contacts from people connecting to care and support by phone, web or face-to-face.
The Lifeline 24 hour telephone crisis support service continues to receive a call every minute on 13 11 14.
