Four courageous men are setting out to prove it’s “more manly” to open up, than bottle up and battle through.
For one night in October, four high-profile men will be telling their incredible stories around mental health at a fundraising initiative at Mount Maunganui.
During a fun evening full of laughs, and yes, vulnerability, Zane Munro, from ‘For All The Brothers’, Tui Tupou, Sean Weir and Kenrick Smith will open up and prove that, together, men can beat the statistics.
Simply titled he., the event taking place on October 13 at the Mount Maunganui Surf Club will showcase the four legends as they come together to break down the stigmas, and inspire others and prove that men don’t have to struggle on their own.
His support group For All The Brothers has branches throughout Australia and New Zealand, and has over 40,000 followers on Instagram.
A psychology major, certified life coach and passionate mental health advocate, Cassandra Hogan wants to “be the change”.
Cassandra says although Kiwi men report much lower rates of depression and anxiety than women, the grim reality behind that truth is that men still account for around three-quarters of suicides in NZ.
The he. event will be held at Mount Maunganui Surf Club at 5.30pm on October 13, 2023.
All raised funds will go towards For All The Brothers and The Last Chance Project.
