About My Challenge

I’m taking on 3,307 push‑ups in 24 days to raise awareness and support for mental health in Australia — and this challenge is personal. I’ve walked through seasons of depression myself, and I know how heavy that darkness can feel. By God’s grace, support, and the right help, I found my way back to hope. Now I’m pushing so others can find that same light.

Your tax‑deductible donation helps fund psychologists, counsellors, and mental health services that change lives. Every dollar strengthens the work of people who show up for those who feel like they can’t keep going.

My faith anchors this mission. Scripture reminds us: “The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.” — Psalm 34:18 And as I push through each rep, I hold onto: “Let us run with endurance the race set before us.” — Hebrews 12:1

This challenge is more than physical effort — it’s a declaration that no one should struggle alone. Together, we can #pushforbetter mental health outcomes in Australia and lift others the way Christ calls us to.

Every dollar helps #pushforbetter mental health outcomes in Australia by funding much-needed mental health services and initiatives.
