CMHA HPE promoting push up challenge in February

The Canadian Mental Health Association – Hastings Prince Edward is encouraging the community to be apart of their Push Up Challenge.

Residents of all ages and abilities are encouraged to do 2,000 push-ups or a similar exercise from February 5th to 27th.

People are being asked to share their progress on Facebook by tagging @CMHAHPE and using #Push4Purpose. The challenge is aimed at starting a conversation with loved ones about mental health.

CMHA HPE adds in their statement that the goal of 2,000 push-ups, sadly represents 2,000 people who commit suicide every day around the globe.
