Nanaimo Run to Conquer Cancer presented by Helijet

in support of our Vancouver Island division of the BC Cancer Foundation

The Nanaimo Run to Conquer Cancer was started in 2012 by Team Tour de Cure of the BC Ride to Conquer Cancer. Yes a run to raise money for a ride that benefits the BC Cancer Foundation

At the time Team Tour de Cure set out to create a fun local run for all abilities while raising money and awareness in the battle against cancer. With the assistance of the City of Nanaimo and the Nanaimo Port Authority we were able to bring the first 5km run to Nanaimo's waterfront.

Through the generousity of our local corporate sponsors the Run to Conquer Cancer has been able to donate 100% for all proceeds raised from this event to the BC Cancer Foundation.

In 2015 we were able to get the Ride to Conquer Cancer to commit to having every dollar raised by Vancouver Island teams to stay on Vancouver Island. This change means that all 100% of the money we raise at this events is helping create better outcomes and patient care directly here in Nanaimo, and across all 462km of the beautiful island we call home.
