About My Challenge
I’m doing 3,214 push-ups in 23 days to raise awareness and vital funds for mental health in Australia.
This challenge for me isn’t really about the push-ups but about starting conversations, breaking the stigma, and reminding people that it’s OK not to be OK. Mental health affects all of us, whether it’s a friend, a loved one, or our own inner battles. We all have a role to play in making it safe to speak up and I hope that we can make a difference throughout the next 3 weeks.
To add to this challenge, for the funds that are raised I will complete a final day of push-ups amounting to the total! This is in hope to get more people involved but also, to push and challenge my brain and body 🤝
Every push-up represents a life impacted by mental illness—and every dollar you donate helps fund critical mental health services and initiatives.
You can support my effort by making a tax-deductible donation to my fundraising page.
Let’s #PushForBetter mental health outcomes across Australia—together.
Supporting The 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.
