About My Challenge
I’m doing 3,214 push-ups in 23 days — one for every life lost to suicide in Australia in 2023 (the most recent stats).
I’m taking on this challenge to raise awareness and much-needed funds for mental health support. You can show your support by donating to Lifeline Australia — and yes, it’s tax-deductible.
🎯 My goal: Raise $1,000 to help Lifeline provide 24/7 crisis support to those who need it most.
Here’s what your donation can do:
-
☎️ Fund 25 life-saving crisis calls ($39 per call)
-
💬 Support 10 virtual counselling sessions ($100 each)
-
🧠 Train 2 new crisis support volunteers ($500 per volunteer)
Every dollar counts. Together, we can #PushForBetter mental health outcomes across Australia.
Thank you so much for your support — it truly means the world. Let’s make every push-up count.
– Marina 💙
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.
