Support Us


Lifeline is a volunteer organization that relies on the community to support individuals.

Lifeline is a volunteer non-profit organisation that relies on the community to support our life saving helpline services. Mental illness is one of the biggest health problems societies face. Roughly one in four people will experience a mental health challenge during their lifetime, yet it remains greatly misunderstood and stigmatised. It is our mission to change the narrative, so that individuals facing emotional distress and crisis are heard, knowing that they are not alone, and support is freely available to them.

We greatly appreciate the generosity and support of our patrons and all our sponsors in making a difference in the lives of many across China.
