Bringing the story to a crescendo – how will the adventure end? Can a bunch of improvised heroes save the world?
The Why?
On average, three out of four suicides are men and we are losing one man a minute to suicide around the world.
The issue of suicide is incredibly complex. But we know this: improving overall mental health and helping men establish better social connections can reduce the risk of suicide. And so that’s our mission. To get there, we’re uniting experts, funding bold new approaches and embracing fresh perspectives. Examples of this include the Movember funded project, Gamers vs. Depression.
Movember community ambassador Ro Ram says
“We are inspiring our audience to help craft 'One Fun Story' to have fun and save lives through the powers of collaboration and community. We’re incredibly excited to embrace the power of music and professional acting as we go loud to address this quiet issue”.
Donations during the stream will order to change the narrative of the game, as well as exclusive giveaways thanks to the generosity of the community supporting.
