Locals are being encouraged to get involved in the Push-Up Challenge.
Lifeline Loddon Mallee is backing the challenge, saying it’s about completing 3144 push-ups in 23 days during June.
Why 3,144 push-ups?
Sadly, this is the number of Australians who lost their lives to suicide in 2021.
The Mildura group says it’s about staying healthy but also raising funds for Lifeline to support Aussies in crisis.
Over hundred and fifty three thousand people jumped on board last year to pump out over one hundred and ninety two thousand push-ups and raise over $10 million for mental health and suicide prevention.
