About Our Challenge
At Kelvin Grove State College, we’re proud to be participating in The Push-Up Challenge—a national initiative aimed at raising awareness and funds for mental health in Australia.
As a college community, we’re taking on the challenge of completing 3,214 push-ups over 23 days. This number represents the lives lost to suicide in Australia in 2021—a powerful reminder of why mental health matters.
Through this challenge, we're not only promoting physical wellbeing but also starting important conversations around mental health, resilience, and support.
You can get behind our efforts by making a tax-deductible donation to our fundraising page.
Every dollar raised will go towards funding critical mental health services and initiatives across the country.
Let’s come together as a community and #PushForBetter mental health outcomes for all Australians.
Supporting Push For Better Foundation
The Push For Better Foundation raises awareness and engages people in mental health through connection, education and health and wellbeing. We #pushforbetter.
