Richmond Hill/Markham: Pink Courage - CIBC Run for the Cure

Richmond Hill/Markham

Pink Courage

 
Women walk on

For those who have been safe and free from the possibility.

They have no history, no scars, no "what ifs"

Still they perform the routine and join in here with ability.

Women walk on -

for those who are yet to come and have only become aware.

They see the road as a daunting task, seeming without end.

Where life can be taken from them cause cancer doesn't care.

Women walk on -

for those who have gone before and came out on the other side.

They are strong and determined to live a full life, seizing every moment that is given and deciding not to hide.

Women walk on -

for those who still fight the cruel invasion of body and soul.

They are weak at times but fight to regain their strength.

Working toward remission - that ultimate goal.

Women walk on -

for those who have lost their battle but the spirit still remains.

They taught courage, fortitude, and determination despite setbacks.

They carry us onward and their time has not been in vain.

Women walk on -

so as not to lose hope, to never forget, to cherish each day without any regrets.

To abolish this killer on a race for the cure, we must endure to ensure...

Women - Walk On!

 

Hi everyone,  

 

As you all know last year I was able to fight this terrible disease.  I was lucky to have such an amazing support system with family and friends and an amazing medical team.  I've  always wanted to participate in the walk a thon and help where I can and honour my beautiful sister-in law Anna, my mother-in-law Laura, and my grandmother Giovanna who past away with breast cancer.

 

 

 We have come together as a team to support the thousands of Canadians diagnosed with breast cancer every year.
 
We are participating and fundraising for this year’s Canadian Cancer Society CIBC Run for the Cure, because we believe better treatment options and survival outcomes are possible. And we want to support all Canadians impacted by breast cancer, including our family and friends. 
 
With your help, we can reach our fundraising goal and fund groundbreaking breast cancer research and support programs and services for those impacted by this disease. Together, we can create a future without breast cancer. 
 
Please donate today. Help us give Canadians impacted by breast cancer a reason to have hope. 
 
Thank you! We appreciate your generous support.
