Push for Prostate Cancer

I'm doing push-ups this Blue September. Show your support, let's tackle prostate cancer together

This September I've set myself a fundraising challenge to help bring down prostate cancer and support our mates.

Here's the gameplan:

I smash out heaps of push-ups throughout the month to inspire you to dig deep towards life-saving research and support.

Let's tackle prostate cancer together. Donate now. Because prostate cancer is killing people in our community. It's the most diagnosed cancer for blokes in NZ.

Your support helps provide support for people affected by a diagnosis. Plus you'll be helping raise awareness so more blokes know to get tested when they need to, along with research into treating and diagnosing prostate cancer.

My Impact

Kia ora whanau Thank you so so much for you donations. I raised over $600, way more than I expected. Thank you! I have completed my target last night. Sorry for the radio silence, busy and out of my normal daily routine but I did keep doing my press ups at random times, even on my get aways with M. I did my 739 with a few extras. Body feeling good and I will probably continue. Again thank you! Hugh
