No young person should have to face everything alone.
After losing his brother and watching his mum become seriously ill, one young man supported by MACS found himself overwhelmed by grief, loneliness and uncertainty. He withdrew from friends, spent most of his days in his bedroom and felt like his life was going nowhere. At the same time, he was worried about his younger brother and wanted to give him the stability he needed.
Looking back, I know I wasn’t coping.
With support from MACS, he slowly began to rebuild his confidence. Today, he has somewhere to call home and is working towards a better future for them both.
This Christmas, help us be there for another young person who needs someone in their corner.
