About My Challenge
I'm completing 1,607 push-ups in 23 days to raise awareness and funds for mental health in Australia.
This year I’m doing the Push-Up Challenge not just for fitness, but for something much deeper. Mental health struggles have hit me pretty hard through out the past couple years, I’ve been through my own battles, and I’ve seen others go through theirs too. Eight months ago, my friend Isla lost her fight with her mental health. She was bright, kind, and deeply loved, but like too many others, she became part of the suicide statistic.
I’m pushing to raise funds so that people like Isla — like all of us — have better support, better places to turn to, and real hope when things get hard.
Every push-up counts. Every dollar helps.

Supporting Lifeline
Lifeline exists to ensure no person in Australia has to face their toughest moments alone.
Our crisis support services are available 24/7 to listen, without judgement, to any person in Australia who is feeling overwhelmed, experiencing crisis or longs to be heard.
Experience shows us it is through connection that we can find hope. With Australians struggling with cost-of-living pressures, increasing inflation, housing insecurity, global instability, and recovery after extreme weather events, our crisis support services have remained in high demand with our voice and text services receiving up to 4,000 contacts a day from help seekers. Our partnership with The Push Up Challenge plays a vital role in raising funds to support the delivery of suicide prevention and crisis support services at a time where we have never been needed more.
Thank you for supporting Lifeline. Your fundraising is helping to save lives.
