About My Challenge

Hi! I’ve signed myself up to complete 3,307 push-ups in 24 days — which is a lot of push-ups, a lot of sore muscles, and a very good reason to care deeply about mental health in Australia.

I’m taking on this challenge to raise awareness and funds for mental health support services that so many Australians rely on (or will need at some point — including people we love, and maybe even ourselves).

If you’d like to support the cause (and motivate me to keep pushing when my arms say “absolutely not”), you can make a tax‑deductible donation to my page.

Every dollar helps #pushforbetter mental health outcomes by funding vital services, support programs and initiatives right here in Australia.

Thanks for cheering me on — one push-up at a time 💪🧠

Supporting Lifeline Queensland

Lifeline Queensland is proud to be a beneficiary of this year’s The Push‑Up Challenge, a chance to come together, get involved and make a real difference.

Every day, people across Queensland reach out to Lifeline in their hardest moments. By taking part in the Challenge, you are helping raise awareness of mental health and suicide, and supporting an organisation that is there for people 24/7, when it matters most.

Whether you are doing push‑ups, cheering others on or sharing the message, every action helps support the work of Lifeline Queensland and reminds people that help is always available and no one has to face things alone.
