Exciting news alert!!!

This year our 18th Annual Mayor's Luncheon speaker is Nathan Wiebe! We are so excited to have him as our guest this year, and love hearing those local stories.

If you don't know Nathan, here is a quick bio!

Nathan has served as Executive Director of The Center for the past 10 years. Originally from beautiful British Columbia, he grew up deeply immersed in the world of hockey. After playing junior hockey in the Prairies, he went on to graduate with a degree in Psychology and met his wife, Alyssa, the summer before completing college.
Together, they have three children—Theo, Finn, and Fern—and spend their winters at the hockey rink and their spring and summer months golfing, camping, and exploring outdoors. A man of faith, a lover of woodworking, and a student of humility, Nathan is passionate about mental health and strives to embody someone who is present, intentional, and action-oriented.

We also want to take a quick moment to thank our sponsor City of Swift Current for making this event possible.

Team Canadian Mental Health Association Swift Current Branch at the coldest night of the year walk to support our friends at The Center in Swift Current

Wow! In just 3 short weeks the push-up challenge raised over $3.8 million dollars for mental health. We also seen more than 83 million push-ups completed!

What started as 4 friends with a goal has turned into a multi-million dollar campaign for mental wellness and working towards ending the stigma around mental health. Let this be a reminder, it doesn't have to be a big thing to make big changes. We all have to start somewhere.

For all of you who participated we thank you from the bottom of our hearts!

Day 19 and we are on the final week! Today is about spending a bit less time on social media. So after you read this post let's put the phone away. Get some push-ups in and take a break from social media! See you all tomorrow 💪

After 2 weeks of push ups this 70 is going to feel like a breeze! Take a moment to think about how media impacts our view of mental health and how we can work towards ending the stigma.

I also want to take a moment to highlight the 7 teams and over 65 individuals who are doing push ups in support of Canadian Mental Health Association Swift Current Branch. We are forever grateful for your support. That is over 130,000 pushups! Great job and we are so happy to be apart of a great community like Swift Current!

Today is a big one! 143 push-ups . Hopefully you got a good rest last night because you're going to need it for this one. Getting a good nights rest is so important to your overall health, but also your mental health. If you didn't get a good sleep last night I am sure you will sleep great after 143 pushups today!

I hope everyone enjoyed their rest day on Sunday and some family time yesterday. We are back to the grind with day 13. Let's keep up that momentum as we are over half way through! Don't forget you can use alternative exercises!

Day 9! Lets go into the weekend strong and energized! Today's goal is 89 for the 89% of women who report feeling worried or anxious. That is an alarming percentage. Take some time to reflect on why we are doing those pushups each day. Remember if you're struggling with the total of pushups or maybe feeling a little fatigue from the previous days. Look at the many great alternatives!

02/12/2026

Ok folks, today is a big one! Lets get active and help our mental health. Please remember to utilize the alternative methods if 140 pushups is too much. Break them out into smaller sessions or do half pushups and half alternatives. This isn't a competition or a race this is about raising awareness and ending the stigma around mental health! Let us know how you do!
