evilgoddssHey, so I’m joining my company’s team, and doing the Rexall OneWalk to conquer cancer. Specifically, the 15km City Walk.
My personal goal is to raise $800. If you can help me reach this goal, you’d be helping a loved one somewhere in your life. Statistics in Ontario show that 1 in 2 people will experience cancer in their lives. And while in 1950 only 20% patients survived cancer free 5+ years after treatment, now, thanks to research and broader education worldwide, that number has risen to 60%. Would it not be amazing to see that number rise to 100% in our lifetimes. We get there by research.
The Princess Margaret Hospital, in Toronto, is more than just a cancer treatment centre. It’s also a world class research centre and that shares its successes and failures to a wider global community in cancer research and treatment.
So, I’m walking the OneWalk, but to do that, I need some support. Any and every penny helps, if you can.
