About Us
Menslink has been supporting young men in the Canberra region for over fifteen years through our free counselling, volunteer mentoring and education programs. In that time we have helped thousands of young guys get through tough or lonely times with the least amount of pain or harm to themselves or those around them. We help young blokes reach their full potential and become the great adult men they want to be, because we believe everything is possible for them, their families, their mates and our community. All of our services are free to young guys and their families.
"Menslink has been an invaluable service that has provided me with the help I need that would be out of reach otherwise due to the financial cost of other mental health services. The word 'life-changing' has become an overused cliché, however the excellent support Menslink has provided me has positively changed my outlook on life. A huge thank you to the Menslink team" - Young guy
How your donation will help
If you find yourself asking ... I don't have time to be a mentor but how can I help? We are calling on individuals, families and businesses to contribute what they can to continue our 2 year mentoring Brogram, free counselling and suicide prevention / mental health talks to blokes at all our Canberra Schools. You will be providing a whole new path for another young bloke that is doing it tough. Providing a new path away from crime, suicide and struggle. Creating a more respectful and supportive Canberra Community ...one bloke at a time.
Your contribution will be matched dollar for dollar (up to $5,000) by the kind sponsorship of businesses in our community.
"I can’t recommend what these guys do for our young boys enough! Menslink were there for my son right when he needed them the most. He was grieving the loss of his father, looking for approval from the wrong influences and was really angry with everything and everyone. Menslink’s intervention helped guide him down a better path and take responsibility for his actions. I will be eternally grateful to them for what they have done for my son as I was at a real risk of losing him. Thank you!”
