3000 push ups to Christmas

Honouring Aunt Jean: A Push-Up Challenge to Support Culture&

Hi everyone,

My name is Alfie Gaudelli, and I’m the founder of Gaudelli Goalkeeping, a business dedicated to developing the next generation of goalkeepers through tailored, high-quality coaching. Today, I’m reaching out to ask for your support in a cause close to my heart.

Recently, my Aunt Jean passed away unexpectedly. She was an incredible woman who dedicated her life to helping others and supporting inclusivity through her work with Culture&, an organisation that empowers communities by creating opportunities in arts and culture. Her warmth, generosity, and passion touched so many lives, and I’m determined to honour her legacy in a meaningful way.

In her memory, I’m taking on a challenge: 3,000 push-ups over 30 days (100 a day), all while wearing goalkeeper gloves. Starting on 25th November and leading up to Christmas, this challenge is not just about fitness—it’s about raising funds and awareness for Culture&, continuing the work my aunt was so passionate about.

I’ve invited my Gaudelli Goalkeeping community of young athletes and parents to join me in this challenge, with kids aiming for 1,000 push-ups (30 a day) and parents choosing their own goals. Together, we hope to spread kindness, celebrate Aunt Jean’s life, and make a tangible impact for this amazing organisation.

All funds raised will go directly to Culture& to support their projects and initiatives. Your support can help bring arts and culture to underserved communities, fostering diversity, creativity, and opportunity—the values my aunt championed so passionately.

Please join us in this effort by donating, sharing this page, or even taking on your own push-up challenge in solidarity. Let’s make this Christmas truly special in Aunt Jean’s honour and show the power of community in making a difference.

Thank you for your kindness and generosity.

Alfie Gaudelli
