Generations of Strength
On February 5th, my father Mike Johnson and I are taking part in The Push‑Up Challenge. Together, we’re challenging ourselves to complete a heap of push‑ups between February 5–27, 2026, all to help push for better mental health outcomes across Canada.
You can help us make a difference by joining the challenge or donating to our team.
All proceeds go directly to the Canadian Mental Health Association (CMHA), supporting mental illness recovery and promoting positive mental health for people across Canada.
I’m taking on this challenge in honour and loving memory of two incredible people:
- Stephen Finch — my brother from another mother, and a devoted, loving father to his kids
- My Uncle Tom — a beloved husband and caring father
Mental health affects everyone. This challenge is my way of pushing myself personally while doing something meaningful to keep their memory alive.
Thank you, Dad, for taking on this challenge with me. I couldn’t have asked for a better teammate.
Thank you so much for your consideration, your generosity, and your support.
