About Our Challenge
We’re taking on 2,000 push-ups in 23 days from 5–27 February to raise funds and awareness for mental health.
Why?
Because in Aotearoa, we’re experts at saying “yeah nah, all good” while everything around us is absolutely not all good. As a nation we’ll soldier on with stress, burnout, and a broken spirit — but heaven forbid we admit we’re struggling.
So as a team, we’re pushing ourselves - literally - to help normalise talking about mental health instead of pretending we’re made from reinforced concrete.
Every dollar we raise goes to the Mental Health Foundation of New Zealand, helping build a future where mental health is treasured, protected, and actually prioritised… not swept under the rug with the rest of our unspoken emotions.
Support us, laugh at our technique, cheer us on, or simply admit, “yeah OK maybe I am a bit stressed.”
Honestly — any of those helps.
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.
