About My Challenge
Hi all, this June I'm completing 3,249 push-ups in 24 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 where I'm aiming for $500. I'm aiming for 20 individuals to donate $25 or more. If you pause for a moment and connect with this cause, perhaps you can be one of these people. I understand if you don't want to or cannot, and I thank you for taking some time to make yourself more aware about this cause. Perhaps, alternatively, you can spread this information to others or reach out to someone who may be struggling.
Having done this before, I know that this truly becomes physically challenging throughout the month. (And I am very out of shape at the moment so this will be a grind!) Your body aches and your resilience reduces. Often you think it is not possible to do another day and cannot see the finish line. This is something that people face on a day-to-day basis in a range of different contexts. They don't necessarily feel it physically but rather face it mentally and struggle, often feeling alone.
Every dollar helps #pushforbetter mental health outcomes in Australia by funding much-needed mental health services and initiatives. Services that support people to realise they are not alone and always have help. For lifeline, just $39 dollars will fund one life-saving call and $60 will keep the crisis support lines open for half an hour.
Thank you for your support!
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.
