Ben's participating in The Push-Up Challenge 2026
Roughly 2000 people complete suicide globally everyday.
23 days. 2000 push ups. 87 push ups a day.
Personal goal of raising $2,000 NZD for the Mental Health Foundation.
- I'll post videos of my daily amount on my IG feed, so you can count them if need be. (I'll personally aim for 87 a day, but any amount of daily push-ups that add up to the total amount of 2,000 will do.)
- If injury happens, then I'll look into one of the suggested alternate exercises.
- I'll contact people and invite them to contribute via my fundraising link, but won't hound.
-Ben.
I'm completing 2,000 push-ups in 23 days to raise awareness and funds for mental health. Please support me as I push for better mental health from 5-27 February. All proceeds help the Mental Health Association of New Zealand 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.
