2222INC
The nonprofit Chef Rush founded around the daily count — a registered 501(c)(3) turning awareness into direct, organized support.
The Mission
2,222 push-ups, every day, for the estimated 22 veterans lost to suicide each day.
Every day, Chef Rush performs 2,222 push-ups — a physical act of remembrance for the estimated 22 veterans lost to suicide each day.
The why
22 a day is
22 too many
An estimated 22 veterans die by suicide every day. Chef Rush answers that number with one of his own: 2,222 push-ups, every single day, so the count is never allowed to fade into the background.
The mission is personal. It was set in motion in part by the loss of a fellow soldier to suicide in 2011 — a reminder that behind every statistic is a person, a family, and a story that mattered. The daily count is a promise to keep showing up for the ones still here.
The nonprofit
2222INC
The mission is more than a daily count. It is organized as a registered nonprofit, with partners and a purpose that reaches beyond the ranks.
USAA Coalition
A partner in USAA's Face the Fight, a coalition confronting veteran suicide head-on and working to move the country toward zero.
The Wider Work
Beyond veterans: mentoring underprivileged kids, standing against bullying, and speaking openly about mental health.
