The Circle of Hope

The CIRCLE OF HOPE is a special donor community dedicated to funding medical research into mental illness.

​

Our donors support fellowships to help discover new treatments, advance cures, save lives and deliver hope to all.​ 

​

One in Five Association Inc is a registered Type 1 DGR Charity. All contributions over $2 are fully tax deductible.

​

MAKE CHANGE POSSIBLE

​

You can support critical mental health research by getting started with a monthly donation. Regular giving helps us better plan and allocate funds to research studies and to our world-class research partners at Monash Health and The Florey Institute.

​

Right now, we’re funding research projects into depression, suicide prevention, eating disorders, menopausal depression and more.

​

At One in Five, our mission is to accelerate and advance medical research to develop better treatments and cures for mental illness.

​

YOU CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE

​

Too many families are forced to watch loved ones suffer with treatments that are decades old. In Australia right now, suicide is the leading cause of death for people aged 15 to 49. This year, one in five Australians will experience mental ill health and nearly half within our lifetime. And the truth is, without proper investment in research these numbers don’t change.

​

Promising young researchers leave the field, or the country, because funding runs out. Lives are cut short not because science failed, but because funding vital research failed. Every year of underinvestment means more lives lost, more futures unfulfilled, and more families grieving outcomes that could one day be preventable.​​​​

Why Join?

Australians will experience mental ill health this year.

 

Australians face mental illness in their lifetime.

​

Suicide is the leading cause of death for Australians in this age bracket.

By joining the Circle of Hope, you’ll be funding urgently needed medical research. You’ll also receive other benefits including:

  • Welcome pack

  • Impact reporting

  • Event discounts

  • Research webinar invitations

“Mental health research is severely underfunded. When we fund research, we fund answers. When we give hope, we save lives. That’s the power of the Circle of Hope.”
