We recently lost my brother Keegan to his struggles with mental health, he was diagnosed at age 19 with clinical depression and anxiety and fought his illness for 20 years but could no longer continue and ended his life at age 39.
I'm completing 3,249 push-ups in 24 days to raise awareness and funds for mental health in Australia, this represents the number of lives lost in Australia to suicide in 2022 + one more for Keegs as he left us in April 2024.
You can show your support by making a tax-deductible donation to my page.
Every dollar helps #pushforbetter mental health outcomes in Australia by funding much-needed mental health services and initiatives.
Dedicated to: Keegan Gleadowe O’Connell
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.
