About My Challenge
Many a person who I have known have struggled with their mental health. Some of them have managed to keep going but others did not. I want to do this to honour the memory of those who lost their battle to mental illness and to support those friends of mine who have struggled or are struggling with their mental health.
From June 3rd to June 26th, I will be doing 3,307 push-ups (representing the number of Australians lost to suicide in 2024). I'm setting a massive $5,000 fundraising goal for Lifeline — and to make things interesting, I am unlocking specific real-world benefits for your donations:
🎁 Unlock Your Giving Rewards:
-
🃏 $20 = The Joke Tier: I will record myself telling a terrible, cringe-worthy joke dedicated to you before hitting a set.
-
🎤 $50 = The Song Tier: Name a song, and I will blast it and badly sing along to it while completing my daily reps on video.
-
📍 $100 = The Location Tier: You pick the Melbourne landmark, office building, or public spot, and I will go there to do my push-ups. I will also give you a shoutout in the video and your face will appear on a computer screen as part of it.
🛑 THE $3K MAIN EVENT TRAM CHALLENGE:
The exact moment this tracking bar hits $3,000, I will complete a full day's push-up set live on a moving Yarra Tram during the afternoon commute. Balance vs. brakes. It will be filmed, and it will be chaotic.
How to back me:
Choose your reward tier, click the donate button, and leave your joke request, song choice, or location idea in the donation comment! If your company has a corporate dollar-matching initiative, let's team up to double the impact.
Thank you for helping me honour those we've lost and support those who are still fighting. Let's make an impact.
Dedicated to: The friends of mine who have died by suicide
