About My Challenge

I'm completing 3,307 push-ups in 24 days to raise awareness and funds for mental health in Australia.

Mental health is a cause that is deeply important to me, both professionally and personally. Like many people, I have seen firsthand the impact that mental health challenges and suicide can have on individuals, families, friends, and entire communities. Those experiences are a reminder of why raising awareness, reducing stigma, and encouraging people to seek support matters so much.

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, while helping to create a future where more people feel able to reach out for support when they need it.
