About the Fund

This fund was initiated and kindly supported by Elaine Lek and Koh Say Kiong in memory of their son, Zen Dylan Koh.

Zen died from suicide due to depression in Melbourne on the first of October 2018. A month before his 18th birthday. He was previously diagnosed with Generalised Anxiety Disorder and ADD.

Zen was a caring and loving individual, who dreamt of becoming a psychologist so he could help other kids who struggled just like he was. In life, he touched the lives of many of his peers with his love, care, and friendship. Even after death, he selflessly saved six other lives through the donation of his organs. Today, his legacy of kindness lives on in this fund.

Since its inception on 1.1.19, this fund has raised more than $160000 - which will pay for almost three thousand hours of therapy! It has also helped 61 at-risk youths, some of whom have been stopped from completing suicide by caseworkers from Limitless. This year, in 2023, 10 or more youths will be placed on this fund.

As Limitless is a registered Institute of Public Character (IPC), all donations $50 and above will qualify for tax relief of 2.5 times the donation value.
