About My Challenge
I’m taking on The Push-Up Challenge this June to help raise awareness for mental health across Australia. Over 23 days, I’ll be doing 3,214 push-ups. One for each life lost to suicide in Australia in 2023. It’s a stark number that affects families, friends and entire communities.
Lifeline supports thousands of people every day, making sure no one has to face overwhelming feelings alone. Every push-up I do is a small show of support for that work and a reminder that every bit of help counts.
If you can, please support my challenge. Every tax-deductible dollar helps Lifeline keep the lines open for those who need it most.

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.
