About Our Challenge
Karateka love a push-up and we love a challenge! In February, we are challenging ourselves to complete 2,000 push-ups (each!) between 5-27 February, 2026 to push for better mental health outcomes in Aotearoa New Zealand.
You can help us push for better mental health in Aotearoa by joining us or donating to our Team.
Funds raised enable The Mental Health Foundation of New Zealand to build a future where mental health is treasured, protected and prioritised.
Supporting Mental Health Foundation
Funds raised will invested by the Mental Health Foundation of New Zealand [The MHF] in three core areas of mahi:
- Promoting everyday actions that lift mental wellbeing
- Providing tools that support people through tough times
- Advocating for a better mental health system and society
With your tautoko/support, we can build a fairer, more connected Aotearoa where everyone’s mental health is valued and protected.
Whāia te hauora hinengaro kia puāwai ai te hauora tangata - there is no health without mental health.
