# Night helpline for young people

> Keep a free, confidential helpline open from 8 pm to 2 am, when young people say they need it most.

- Goal: $30,000
- Raised: $9,800 (32 %)
- Donors: 145
- Time left: 136 days left

Young people tell us the hardest hours are late at night, when the house is quiet and the worries are loud. Most support services close at five.

## Why it matters

A conversation at the right moment can change the shape of a night. Many callers simply need someone to listen without judging, and to help them find the next step: a doctor, a counsellor, a trusted adult, or simply sleep.

Every listener is trained for 40 hours and works with a clinical supervisor on call. Calls are free, confidential, and never recorded.

Reaching the goal opens the helpline seven nights a week for a full year. If you are struggling right now, please call your local emergency number.

## How your gift helps
