Push-Up Challenge 2024
3,249 Push-ups, 23 days, 14 houses and one amazing cause.
This week saw Cranbrook launch our internal fundraising campaign for the 2024 Push-up Challenge to raise money for LifeLine Bondi and the incredible work that they do across our community to support those facing the many challenges that life throws our way.
Huon Groves, Tim Molnar, Rohan O’Donnell and Finn Scott-Brown are leading the charge for the School, drumming up participation and ensuring that this year’s event is as successful as possible and this morning, attended the official launch at the Woollahra Council along with Richard Shields (Woollahra Mayor).
Over 24 days between the 5th and 24th of June, students are aiming to complete 3,249 push-ups (or alternative exercises) representing the 3,249 lives lost to suicide in Australia in 2022; a tragic statistic that affects all tiers of society be it urban or rural, young or old, male or female. We are already seeing an outstanding level of engagement from our students, families, and community with 100s of students and staff already signing up to participate and the official event still hasn’t even started!
Last year we raised $44,000 for LifeLine Bondi and this year we are aiming to hit the $50,000 mark so if you would like to contribute, you can encourage your son to register using the link below, join a team yourself or, make a donation to one or more students to show your support.
Thank you to all those who have already taken the time to register and/or donate. Weekly updates will be going out to students and the community on our social media, via the Link and in assemblies during the event so stay tuned!
