The ‘Why’ behind the push ups
Last year, I lost someone I knew who was 17 to suicide and while we weren’t close, it hit differently than I expected. It reminded me that we never truly know what someone is carrying.
That loss, combined with the growing mental health crisis in Australia, pushed me to do something. So I’m completing 3,307 push ups in 24 days for the challenge, not just to raise funds, but to show up for the people who feel like they can’t.
Every push-up is a reminder that we keep going, together.
Please consider making a tax deductible donation and helping me make this count.
