About My Challenge
I'm doing 3,307 push-ups in 24 days as part of The Push-Up Challenge to raise awareness and funds for mental health in Australia.
This target represents the 3,307 people who died by suicide in Australia in 2024 (the most recent stats). This is something close to my heart as both my uncle and my nephew both took their lives.
You can push for better mental health too by donating to my fundraising page and supporting this important cause: www.thepushupchallenge.com.au/fundraisers/pieterdemmers/the-push-up-challenge Funds raised will go to Lifeline to support much-needed mental health services and initiatives in Australia. Any donation, big or small, is really appreciated!
Supporting Lifeline
Lifeline is a national charity providing Australians who are experiencing emotional distress access to 24-hour crisis support, suicide prevention, mental health, and domestic and family violence prevention services.
Lifeline exists to ensure that no person in Australia has to face their toughest moments alone.
Our experience has shown us that it is through connection that we can find hope. That’s why we are available 24 hours a day to listen without judgement to anyone in Australia who is feeling overwhelmed, distressed, or experiencing a crisis. Each year, Lifeline receives over 1.3 million contacts to our crisis support services.
By supporting Lifeline, you are ensuring the Lifeline network has the critical technology, resources and people necessary to deliver crisis support, self-led support, and counselling services around the clock.
