Every day, 70 Canadians will hear the words “you have breast cancer.” Thankfully, I'm not one of them.  But I could have been. And I could still be.  Unfortunately, the list of women I know who have heard those words has grown too long -- some didn't make it, like my mother-in-law and my cousin.  But some, like Tita Len, did, and it's for them and my daughter that I continue to participate in the Run, both as a walker and a volunteer.

While these Canadians are living longer, healthier lives after a breast cancer diagnosis, there is still so much work to be done. 

By participating in this year’s Canadian Cancer Society CIBC Run for the Cure,  I’m helping make a meaningful difference in the lives of Canadians affected by breast cancer. I’m running in honour of the incredible people in my life, and I need your support! 
 
Please contribute what you can to help me achieve my fundraising goal. Every dollar makes a difference. Your donation will fund the best breast cancer research and the largest support system in the country for people affected by cancer.  
 
Did you know that just $100 could fund two hours of life-saving research in a world class laboratory? Your contribution could lead to the next breakthrough! 
 
Together, we can change the future of breast cancer. 
 
Thanks in advance for your support!
