About Our Challenge
In February, our Team is taking part in The Push-Up Challenge in honour of our colleague Michele McPherson who passed away on July 3, 2024. Michele worked hard to raise awareness about mental health, and our efforts in the Push-Up Challenge are a part of her legacy. Our team name, the 'Michele's Euro-Visionaries' is a nod to Michele's appreciate for (some say obsession with), the Eurovision song contest.
We are challenging ourselves to complete a heap of push-ups between February 11-28, 2025 to push for better mental health outcomes in Canada.
You can help us push for better mental health in Canada by joining us or donating to our team.
All proceeds go to the Canadian Mental Health Association to support mental illness recovery and foster positive mental health outcomes in Canada.
En février, notre équipe participe au Défi push-up. Nous nous lançons le défi de faire une tonne de push-ups entre le 11 et le 28 février 2025 pour sensibiliser le public aux troubles de santé mentale au Canada.
Tous les dons sont versés à l’Association canadienne pour la santé mentale afin de soutenir le rétablissement des personnes ayant un trouble de santé mentale et d’améliorer les résultats en matière de santé mentale d’un océan à l’autre.

I am moved by how my late daughter touched so many colleagues to participate and honor her by doing this Push-Up Challenge to raise awareness for mental health
