About Our Challenge
In February, our Community is taking part in The Push-Up Challenge. We are challenging ourselves to complete a heap of push-ups between February 5-27, 2026 to #pushforbetter mental health outcomes in Canada.
You can help us push for better mental health in Canada by joining us or donating to our Community.
All proceeds go to the Canadian Mental Health Association to support mental illness recovery and foster positive mental health outcomes in Canada.
Supporting CMHA Ontario - Waterloo Wellington
Make a Difference with The Push-Up Challenge
When you fundraise for CMHA Waterloo Wellington through The Push-Up Challenge, you’re helping people access the mental health services they need—and deserve.
“I was scared of change and afraid of being labelled. I thought a diagnosis would define me forever. But getting help was the turning point.”
Thanks to CMHA WW, lives are transformed. One participant shared how a simple text from a CMHA WW worker led to counselling, support, and a renewed sense of hope. Today, they have a strong care network and a deeper understanding of their mental health—and their family is more informed too.
Your Impact, Dollar by Dollar
Every dollar you raise helps someone take a step toward recovery:
- $100 → Supplies for a peer-led art program
- $150 → One eating disorder intake assessment
- $250 → Crisis support for three people via Here 24/7
- $500 → One early psychosis treatment plan
- $1,000 → Group therapy session for ten people
Join us. Push for better mental health. Fundraise. Make change happen.
