Take 26,000 steps for 26,000 kids!
one step at a time…
Why 26,000 steps?
There are over 26,000 kids living in Waterloo Region who are struggling with their mental health. That is one in five kids, and those are pre-pandemic numbers. There are more young people facing mental health challenges than ever before, but you can help.
This Children's Mental Health Week, your steps will count more than ever.
Lutherwood's 2022 Steps for Kids takes place May 1-7 2022.
Join us from your local neighbourhoods, parks or trails to show your support and raise funds and awareness for children's mental health. Funds raised through this event will directly support programming at Lutherwood's Children Mental Health Centre and Safe Haven Youth Services.
Register as an individual or create a team to maximize the fun! Teams can participate together or apart and combine their distances to complete the challenge – whatever works best for you! When registering, be sure to visit the STEPS STORE and check out our awesome merch only available for a limited time.
Participate however you prefer! – walk, run, wheel, or row your boat!
Choose your challenge: The 2022 Steps for Kids has three different distance challenges to pick from -choose one or do all three! (Did you know that 26,000 steps are approximately 20 kilometers?) The goal is distance, not speed – take your time, you have a whole week!
Shop: there are more ways than one to show your support for Steps for Kids!
Click to visit our STEPS STORE – wear your heart on your sleeve – look cool while being cool and caring about your community.

Don’t forget to upload your progress as you go so your efforts will be reflected on our map below and you can show everyone all of your hard work! You will even receive badges of progress as you move through your challenge.
