Pushing Forward - for Yemaya Balson
In loving memory of Yemaya Grace Balson
26th August 2004 - 2nd May 2026
❤️🧡💛💚🩵💜
🌈 In June, our family and friends are taking part in The Push-Up Challenge in loving honour of our beautiful Yemaya; a deeply loved daughter, sister, Auntie, and friend.
Yemaya will always be remembered by her vibrant energy, kindness, devout love for others, and her innate ability to light up any room. Yemaya’s energy was magical and will always be our rainbow reminder; a glimmer of hope on a gloomy day. 🧚✨
We are going to help shine the spotlight on the number of lives lost to suicide each year and raise awareness of mental health. You can create a Team in this Community, join a Team or support someone who is taking part. Help us push for better mental health.
I'm completing 3,307 push-ups in 24 days to raise awareness and funds for mental health in Australia.
You can show your support by making a tax-deductible donation to my page.
Every dollar helps #pushforbetter mental health outcomes in Australia by funding much-needed mental health services and initiatives.
❤️🧡💛💚🩵💜
Remember to be kind, to both yourself and others; Kindness creates connection, and can be the key to opening closed doors for impactful conversations. A problem shared is a problem halved. In honour of Yemaya, let's make life lighter for each other.
With love,
Yemaya's friends and family
