About My Challenge
I'm completing 3,307 push-ups in 24 days to raise awareness and funds for mental health in Australia.
My own struggle with mental health is something I’ve gone back and forth with for countless years and not every time have I succeeded in doing the best for myself or my loved ones in the worst of times, I was always afraid to ask for help or show weakness because I thought I could do it alone. In truth help was the best thing I could do and so raising awareness, being open and letting the ones around you know it’s always okay to reach out for help is something that resides closely with my heart. So I’ll do some push ups which is the easy part, but hopefully we can do more together.

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