Despite the grey skies, lashing rain and chilling winds, just under $950 was donated to Survivors of Suicide and Friends to stage the Border event, which shines a light on mental illness.
Headspace, Yes Unlimited, the Hive and Mind, along with Wodonga Tafe massage and myotherapy students offered support on the day.
