We all know someone who has been affected by cancer, whether it is a friend, family member, neighbour, teammate, or someone in our community. Cancer is something that affects us all, and the fight against cancer is something that brings us together. 

Losing my Opa to cancer in 2014 was one of my first experiences seeing the the effect that cancer can have, on the person with cancer and those who love and care for them. Since then, I have seen close friends' parents, grandparents, extended family, mentors, children, and community members be diagnosed with cancer, some who are now in remission, some who are fighting now, and some who unfortunately lost their battles. It starts to feel like it's too often that someone else that I know and love has to hear the words, "You have cancer".

Please help me reach my fundraising goal. No matter how much you donate, every dollar goes a long way. A donation of $25, $50 or $100 could help ensure a team of researchers has the resources they need to make a life-changing discovery, or a patient has access to support services when they need it most. 

Anything you can give is greatly appreciated!

Thank you for reading :)
