St. John's: Balloon Bandits - CIBC Run for the Cure

St. John's

Balloon Bandits

In October 2020, while I was recovering from a lumpectomy, a small group of family and friends chose to join the walk on my behalf. They called themselves “The Balloon Bandits”.   Balloons, during my surgery and treatments, became a symbol of hope and encouragement.  This small group has grown every year as we choose to do a friends and family walk. 

By participating in this year’s Canadian Cancer Society CIBC Run for the Cure, The Balloon Bandits are helping change the future of breast cancer. We are walking in honour of the incredible people in our lives, and we need your support!

Please contribute what you can to help us achieve our fundraising goal. Every dollar makes a difference. Your donation will fund the best breast cancer research in Canada and a vitally important support system that helps people with breast cancer and their families nationwide.

Did you know that just $100 could fund two hours of life-saving research in a world class laboratory? Your contribution could lead to the next breakthrough!

Together, we can show Canadians facing breast cancer that we will never stop running.

Thanks in advance for your support!
