About My Challenge
Thirteen years ago, we lost an incredible human being, Joel Hayes. Joel was the kind of person who always put others first and never hesitated to rise to a challenge if it meant helping someone in need. If he were still with us today, I have no doubt he’d be taking on this challenge and fundraising to support mental health.
In Joel’s honour, I’m completing 2,000 push-ups in 23 days to raise awareness and funds for the Canadian Mental Health Association. With Joel’s jersey number being 13, and 2026 marking 13 years since his passing, my goal is to raise $1,300.
From February 5–27, I’ll be pushing for better and I’d love your support. Every donation helps the CMHA support mental illness recovery and foster positive mental health across Canada.
Thank you for being part of this journey. 💙
