Kando Highett Push Up Crew - About Our Challenge
This June, we're taking onΒ The Push-Up Challenge andΒ completing a heap of push-ups between 5-28 June, 2024 to raise funds and awareness for mental health.
Kando Highett is a strong family community which actively teaches emotional resilience (mental toughness) and day-to-day coping skills as part of the Mat Chats for Juniors, and the club shares links to mental health resources and local community support services in member communications.Β Β
Once again, Kando Highett is stepping up to make a difference for young people through fund raising for Lifeline Australia.
You can show your support by making a tax-deductible donation to our fundraising page or you can join our Team to be a part of the fun!
Every dollar helps #pushforbetter mental health outcomes in Australia.
Photo above is of the moment I gained my red stripe on my white belt (meaning I was now able to gently spar with a partner) - the sense of achievement, and sense of belonging to a new family began right there!Β Β
Join in the fun - Mel (Bruiser) Wilkey!
Supporting Lifeline
Lifeline exists to ensure no person in Australia has to face their darkest moments alone.
We are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week 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 has played 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.
