Event Information

Since 1997, police officers and agencies across the country have played essential leadership roles in organizing fundraising and cancer awareness activities for the Canadian Cancer Society’s Cops for Cancer. Now, the program has raised over $54 million to fund life-saving pediatric cancer research and support programs that help children and young adults through their cancer journeys. Participants create fundraisers of their choice while collecting pledges from their co-workers, friends, family and community members.

Why? Because when it comes to taking on cancer, it doesn’t just take a village. It takes a society. Donations made to the Canadian Cancer Society through Cops for Cancer fundraisers help reduce the impact that cancer has on children and their families.They let Canadians know they are never alone on this journey.

We are encouraging those participating to be creative with Cops for Fundraisers this year!

Whether shaving your head, cutting your ponytail, or challenging others in a movement challenge, the sky is the limit. These opportunities for raising funds for pediatric cancer research and support programs have never been more important.
