Annual Anatomy Push-Up Challenge Raises Funds for Udonis Haslem Foundation
On Saturday, April 13th, 2024 Anatomy hosted their 7th annual #HourPushUp Challenge raising funds for Udonis Haslem Foundation and Make-A-Wish Southern Florida. Pillars of the Miami community including Udonis Haslem, Marc Megna, Duncan Robinson and more, gathered to participate in this impactful challenge. Anatomy’s 2024 #HourPushUpChallenge took place at Anatomy Miami Beach.
The 7th annual #HourPushUpChallenge invited members and guests to work out for wishes and the future of the Miami community, calling upon participants to do as many pushups as possible in one-hour. Prior to the challenge, each of the participants collected monetary pledges, donated on a per push-up basis. Supporters of the event were also able to offer flat-fee donations via the website. 100% of the funds raised per push-up were donated to the Udonis Haslem Foundation and Make-A-Wish Southern Florida to help enrich lives of people in local underserved communities and grant wishes to local wish kids.
This year's #HourPushUpChallenge raised more than $170,000. Udonis Haslem, participated under TEAM UD, which was led by 5 people. That group raised money and did push-ups together in hopes to complete 2,000 push-ups in an hour with the goal of each push up being worth a minimum of $30 per push up.
"The #HourPushUpChallenge symbolizes the strength of community and the power of collective effort. I'm proud to stand with Anatomy Fitness and our partners in pushing boundaries and making a tangible difference in the lives of children across South Florida.
