Tan and Jim pushup challenge
Jim and I are completing 3,214 push-ups in 23 days to raise awareness and funds for mental health in Australia.
You can show your support by making a tax-deductible donation to my page. It doesn't have to be a big donation- $10 will do!
Every dollar helps #pushforbetter mental health outcomes in Australia by funding much-needed mental health services and initiatives.
I became aware of the push up challenge fundraiser when it popped up on my work email a couple of weeks ago. I'd had a particularly hard day thinking about Len and the push up challenge seemed to be the universe steering me towards something more productive. The physical nature of this fundraiser seems appropriate given Lens commitment to fitness over his life.
Wish me luck- I've never been in worse shape and can barely do one push up!!
Dedicated to: Len
