This year, I’m participating in the Canadian Cancer Society’s CIBC Run for the Cure to support the thousands of Canadians diagnosed with breast cancer each year, including those close to my heart who have endured painful journeys and losses because of this disease. My grandmother, Carol McDowell, who began her battle with breast cancer in early 2023, has been a significant inspiration for me to join this cause in 2024. While we’re grateful for the care she’s received, there is still so much more to be done to support patients at every stage, their families, and the ongoing research into prevention and treatment.

With your help, I can reach my fundraising goal and make a life-changing difference for so many. Every dollar raised will fund groundbreaking breast cancer research, as well as vital programs and services for those impacted by this disease. I’m sure many of you can think of loved ones who have been touched by breast cancer.

Please consider donating today. I believe that better treatment options and improved survival outcomes are within reach. Together, we can give Canadians impacted by breast cancer a reason to hope and help change the future for all.
