Pushing new ground for mental health

Written by Communications | 26 Jul 2022

The Monadelphous ‘Push Up’ Community was made up of 19 teams and 141 legends from across the business supporting The Push-Up Challenge. The challenge ran from 1 June to 24 June with the individual aim to complete 3,139 push-ups. 

Our Monadelphous community (including family members) used a combination of teamwork, strength and dedication to complete 180,656 push-ups and raised $7,601 to help Push for Better Foundation, Lifeline and Movember improve mental health awareness and suicide prevention.
