Aussie mental health promoter and suicide prevention initiative, Gotcha4Life, has partnered with Isuzu Australia Limited to produce a unique truck to assist the charity in its vital fundraising efforts and public awareness program.
The truck, an Isuzu NNR Servicepack Crew with a canopy body, a custom livery and a huge list of extras, will be auctioned to raise money so Gotcha4Life can continue its crucial work, putting the importance of mental health in the spotlight as it pursues its ultimate goal of eliminating suicide in Australia.
Before it goes to raffle, however, the truck will be used as a mobile base on a Gotcha4Life roadshow over the Easter break, as it travels throughout Victoria, New South Wales and the ACT and serves as a meeting point where people can connect and learn more about ways in which individuals can develop their mental health fitness.

“This is a one-of-a-kind truck build and something special to reflect the importance of the cause, and its donation expands on our partnership with the Gotcha4Life Foundation.” said IAL Marketing Manager, Sam Gangemi.
“Gotcha4Life is a fantastic mental fitness charity taking action to engage, educate and empower Australians from all walks of life.
“From the ground up, this NNR has been developed to serve as a meeting place during the amazing roadshow the Gotcha4Life has planned and we’re extremely honoured to be involved in this capacity.
“In raffling off this spectacular truck, we’re hoping to raise some much-needed funding to ensure Gotcha4Life can continue in their admirable bid to end suicide in this country,” he said.
The truck itself has all the bells and whistles, its list of extras spanning a couple of Weber barbecues, fridges, a Nespresso coffee machine, weatherproof TV screens and a professional sound system, along with solar panels and a Redarc Electronics power management system.
For the lucky winner, the truck could fulfil any number of roles, from crew transport, to a ‘game day basecamp’ for travelling sports teams, to a haven for workers on work sites.
“There will be 20,000 tickets available at a cost of $25 each and the draw will take place at 10:00am on Monday, October 10, 2022,” said Mr Gangemi.
“Results will be published in The Australian newspaper on Wednesday, October 12, 2022.
“We encourage everyone to dig deep, buy a ticket and go into the draw to win an amazing bit of kit, but most importantly help us support this noble cause.”
