They clocked up a massive 128,118 reps to raise funds and awareness for mental health.  The challenge asked each person to complete 3,214 reps. But it wasn't a random number; it represented the Australians who lost their lives to suicide last year. Every movement was a reminder and a push towards change.  While some stuck with classic push-ups, others mixed it up with things like stair climbs. It was sweaty, it was sore, and it was seriously impressive.  Altogether, the teams raised more than $8,300 for mental health services. That support will help people get the care they need when they need it most.  There were some tremendous efforts worth a big shoutout. Mono Motion (NSW) topped the charts with over 21,600 push-ups. Simon Brock, Ameliah Stimson and Darren Homann each raised $1,000! And, our highest fundraising team, the Push Pirates, brought in $3,480.   Special mention goes to the brilliant team name game, with gems like Knees Cracked Arms Unsteady and Just Push It!.  A huge congratulations and thank you to everyone involved. Together, we flexed more than muscle, we strengthened our community.   You can find out more about [The Push Up Challenge and our team’s efforts here.](https://www.thepushupchallenge.com.au/fundraisers/MonadelphousGroupLimited) ![ThePipeline\_Blog\_July25](https://news.monadelphous.com.au/hs-fs/hubfs/ThePipeline_Blog_July25.jpg?width=600&height=338&name=ThePipeline_Blog_July25.jpg)   ## Leave a comment Previous Post A message from your E&I leaders Next Post NAIDOC Week 2025 Wrap Up ## Recommended For You [![](https://news.monadelphous.com.au/hubfs/Bringing%20it%20home%20strong%20at%20Kemerton.png)](https://news.monadelphous.com.au/on-the-wire/bringing-it-home-strong-at-kemerton) [Projects](https://news.monadelphous.com.au/on-the-wire/tag/projects) [South West](https://news.monadelphous.com.au/on-the-wire/tag/south-west) 2 Min Read ### [Bringing it home strong at Kemerton](https://news.monadelphous.com.au/on-the-wire/bringing-it-home-strong-at-kemerton) The Monadelphous team has been on site at the Kemerton Lithium Plant (KLP) since November 2019, delivering ...
