Why I'm doing this
I'm completing 3,214 push-ups in 23 days to raise awareness and funds for mental health in Australia.
I'm taking part in this challenge for a few reasons:
1. Throughout highschool and college, a lot of the people I know and am close to have been affected by negative mental health. As much as I would try to help, it never felt like I was making much of a difference. Whilst taking part in this challenge may not make an impact on individual people, I still think that raising awareness and funds for such a widespread issue is a great cause.
2. I really want to get fit and what better reason to do so than to raise awareness for mental health. Along with also preparing me for my lifelong goal
3. I signed up for this challenge a few years ago and never ended up completing it because I was lazy. I'd like to do better this year and complete the full 3214 pushups
Every dollar donated helps #pushforbetter mental health outcomes in Australia by funding much-needed mental health services and initiatives. (It's also apparently tax deductible if you're into that tax stuff)
Supporting Lifeline Canberra ACT

Funds raised through this challenge enable Lifeline Canberra to continue providing critical 24/7 crisis support and suicide prevention services, answer more help seeker calls, and ensure any person in Canberra and across Australia who needs support know where and how to find it.
