About Our Challenge
Every day, at least six Australians die from suicide and a further thirty people will attempt to take their own life. Of these numbers, me are at greatest risk of suicide but least likely to seek help. A study from the Black Dog Institute reported that, in 2011, men accounted for over three quarters (76%) of deaths from suicide. However, an estimated 72% of males don’t seek help for mental disorders.
To help continue raise some awareness and funds for mental health in Australia, myself and some friends are completing 3,307 push-ups in 24 days. Reflective of the 3,307 lives lost to Suicide in 2024.
If you’d like, you can show your support by making a tax-deductible donation to my page.
Every dollar helps #pushforbetter mental health outcomes in Australia by funding much-needed mental health services and initiatives.
