A Florida Marine pushes up for a good cause

COCONUT CREEK, Fla. -- A Florida Marine is pumping up to help out his fellow soldiers.

Sergeant Enrique Trevino is raising money and awareness by doing 1 million  push-ups before the end of the year.

He created the fundraiser to help the Wounded Warrior Project.

"There are people out there who are struggling day to day from losing a limb, or something. So this is just my way to give back to them, and tell them thank you," Trevino said.

He is not doing all the push-ups at once. Trevino said he does about 2,700 push-ups a day.

So far, Trevino said he has raised nearly $10,000. His goal is $20,000.
