About Our Challenge

In February, our Team is taking part in The Push-Up Challenge. We are challenging ourselves to complete 2,000 push-ups between 5-27 February, 2026 to push for better mental health outcomes in Aotearoa New Zealand.

As a team of young people from various backgrounds we have all experienced mental health differently. With up's and down's all round we believe that mental health is not talked enough about. It is okay to feel vulnerable, weak, scared but to find the support you need is crucial. Whether you find that in your friends, family or external services, there will always be someone wanting to chat. 

During this challenge we want to dedicate our efforts towards our friend Noah Nithyagenesh. Noah lost his battle with mental health in May 2025, in the same flat we call home. He was a great friend, smart student and an extremely talented individual. Noah, we hope that you are in a happier place now and have found peace within yourself. We hope our efforts can influence someone else to speak up about their hardships before its too late. 

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.
