There’s power in building community that shares a common goal.

When we come together, we create space for healing, honesty, and hope. No one should walk the journey alone.

Tomorrow’s the day!

Join us for the #WearYourSupport hike a powerful walk for mental health and against GBVF.

Bring your energy, your voice, and your support. Every step counts!

[Lerato Mokopanela @leebucketlist]

Social media can both reinforce stigma and serve as a space for peer-led support if used mindfully.

Let’s reshape the narrative. #MentalHealthMatters #WearYourSupport

[𝒪𝒽𝐼𝓉𝓈𝒯𝑒𝑒 ✟ @ThapeloBoyza]

While online platforms can foster connection and provide helpful resources, they can also perpetuate harmful stereotypes that discourage vulnerability and seeking help.

It’s vital that we challenge these narratives and use social media responsibly #WearYourSupport

[Lerato Mokopanela @leebucketlist]

We can’t wait!

Ready to show up, speak up, and stand together for men’s mental health. See you at Rietvlei Zoo Farm!

@ActivateZA In kasi, in suburbs, in the city—too many men are suffering in silence.

Let’s teach our boys that crying is not weakness.

Let’s show our men that asking for help is courage.

#RedefineMasculinity #WearYourSupport

[Nadine Dirks @GogoMagosha]

Masculinity in Mzansi is shifting.

You can still be indoda and feel deeply.

You can still be strong and go to therapy.

You can say “I’m not okay” — and still be respected.

Let’s build a community where “ngikhathazekile” is met with “ngilapha kuwe.”

Healing starts when we choose each other over fear.
#WearYourSupport

[Nadine Dirks @GogoMagosha]

@ActivateZA Abantu bazothini?

That question has silenced too many men.

In our communities, real strength is not pretending. It’s opening up.

Normalise checking in. Normalise saying “ngikhathazekile.”

Don’t wait until it’s too late. Check in. Reach out. Hold space. A small act of care could save a life. 💙

[ACTIVATE! Change Drivers @ActivateZA]

Did you know that raising awareness about Mental Health and Gender-Based Violence, including femicide (GBVF), is a vital first step toward meaningful change. Educating ourselves and our communities can dismantle stigma and cultivate compassion. It’s essential to recognise that mental health issues often intertwine with experiences of GBVF. Each voice deserves to be heard, creating safe spaces for healing and support. What steps will you take to spread awareness today? #WearYourSupport #mensmentalhealthmonth #ACD

[Lerato Mokopanela @leebucketlist]

Let’s rewrite the script. Masculinity can look like honesty, softness, and asking for help. Let’s keep talking. Let’s keep healing.

#WearYourSupport

[Lerato Mokopanela @leebucketlist]

Real men owning their mental health changes the game. This movement isn’t just talk, it’s action, healing, and brotherhood.

[Lerato Mokopanela @leebucketlist]

These deaths are not statistics. They’re screams we chose not to hear earlier. If you're reading this, start the conversation today.

#WearYourSupport is here to create a space where we tap in, speak out, and begin to heal.

[Lerato Mokopanela @leebucketlist]

Every time I open social media, there's another headline: A woman, brutally killed by a man. This isn't random. It's a pattern. It's a crisis.

Where did we go wrong as a society? And how do we create healing spaces that break this cycle—for good?
#WearYourSupport

[Lerato Mokopanela @leebucketlist]

We can’t "fix the country" until we fix our homes. Our values. Our definitions of masculinity. #WearYourSupport

[Lerato Mokopanela @leebucketlist]

GBV doesn’t start with murder. It starts with silence. With locker room jokes. With ignoring the signs. It ends in blood. #WearYourSupport

[Lerato Mokopanela @leebucketlist]

Before he starts dating, will we have the courage to talk to him?

Will we teach him what consent, respect, and safety look like? #WearYourSupport

[Lerato Mokopanela @leebucketlist]

A 10-year-old boy is scrolling through this horror. He's watching. Absorbing. Who’s guiding him?

What is he learning about love, power, and women? #WearYourSupport

[Lerato Mokopanela @leebucketlist]

This is not the natural state of things. Violence is learned. Misogyny is learned. And right now, it's going viral in our living rooms and timelines. #WearYourSupport

[Lerato Mokopanela @leebucketlist]

What role did family values or the erosion of them play?

Are we teaching respect, or are we teaching silence? What are our sons learning at home?
