Every day, 75 Canadians will hear the words “you have breast cancer.” 12 years ago, I was one of them. I am grateful for the love and support of family and friends - together our fundraising efforts are changing the landscape of screening, diagnosis and treatment in Canada. 

By participating in this year’s Run for the Cure, we are helping change the future of breast cancer. I am running in honour of the incredible people in my life who have also been touched by this disease. 

Please consider donating to the cause as every dollar truly makes a difference. I, myself, have been fortunate to benefit from advanced testing techniques and continued research. I am eternally grateful for each of you and the medical care of my oncologist, family doctor, nurse practitioner, and KRCC staff.

Did you know that a $100 donation funds two hours of laboratory research? Let's help fund the next big breakthrough in breast cancer research! 

Together, we are making difference one step and one donation at a time. 

With hope and optimism for the future for of all of us affected by cancer,

 Jen
