12.01 Dharna Crew Push-up for Mental Health
A shoutout to the amazing students in my 12.01 Dharna Crew who are taking on The Push-Up Challenge, participating daily to raise awareness for mental health.
Over 23 days (June 4~26), we will complete 3,214 push-ups as a team. Each day, The Push for Better Foundation provides a push-up target along with a fact or figure related to mental health, highlighting the importance of this cause. Today’s push-up target was 163, representing the number of headspace sites located across Australia.
I am incredibly proud of how these students have taken on this challenge and have supported each other to reach the targets!
The Push-Up Challenge – Australia’s Largest Physical and Mental Fitness Event
