About My Challenge
Push up challenge
Hi everyone,
I’m taking on The Push-Up Challenge—doing 3,214 push-ups in just 23 days to raise awareness and vital funds for mental health in Australia.
Why 3,214 push-ups? That number represents the 3,214 lives lost to suicide in Australia in 2023—a heartbreaking statistic that I hope we can help change by starting conversations and supporting better mental health services.
I’m pushing for better mental health, and I’d love your support. Please consider donating to my fundraising page—every dollar counts, and all funds raised go to Lifeline WA, helping them continue their crucial work supporting Australians in need.
Here’s the link to donate:

Thank you so much for any support—big or small—it truly means a lot!
Let’s push for better mental health,
Jimmy

Lifeline WA & The Push-Up Challenge: Supporting Mental Health Across WA
Western Australia is vast, covering nearly one-third of the country, with remote communities, resource sector workers, and FIFO (Fly-In Fly-Out) employees facing unique mental health challenges.
At least one-third of FIFO workers experience high levels of burnout and psychological distress—impacting not only individuals but also their families and their community. The isolation, high-pressure environments, and extended shifts can take a toll on mental wellbeing.
Thanks to The Push-Up Challenge, funds raised will support Lifeline WA’s critical 24/7/365 crisis services—including phone, text, and chat—ensuring that no one has to face their darkest moments alone. In 2025, our goal is to be the person ready to have a conversation that helps someone feel heard, supported, and understood.
By taking part in The Push-Up Challenge, you’re helping Lifeline WA provide life-saving support across our vast state. Every push-up counts. Every conversation matters.
