Push Ups for Charity Wrap Up

What a great morning it was last Saturday 7th May when the Push Ups for Charity event finally got underway in the quest to raise money and awareness for Make A Wish foundation! 

We had a talk by Woolhara deputy mayor Peter Cavanagh, an inspiring message from Caz Lederman from Make A Wish Australia - and of course a whole bunch of enthusiastic participants psyched to bust out as many push ups as they could in 90 sec!

There were a standout number of pushups per person this time around with some obviously very fit and in shape participants. Special mentions to David Balassa and Pei-Ling Kong who took out the most number of push ups for a male and female respectively, at 109 and 94. Outstanding!

So far we have over $1300 raised so all in all a great effort :)
