Help Shamel raise money

For participating in Scotiabank Calgary Marathon 2020

My Story…

On May 31st, I will be participating in the Scotiabank Calgary Marathon to raise funds for Spinal Cord Injury Alberta (SCI AB) an organization that is very important to me. What do you do after you go through a spinal cord injury (SCI) or other physical disability in Alberta? You turn to the SCI AB. Find hope. Connect. Start rebuilding together to achieve independence and full community participation! When I first found myself paralyzed over 30 years ago SCI AB were there for me every step of the way. When SCI happens, life changes! Suddenly, little things like eating and dressing can become a challenge. Dreams are replaced with overwhelming uncertainty. For over 50 years, SCI AB has been empowering people with SCI to adjust, adapt and thrive. What do you do after you go through a spinal cord injury (SCI) or other physical disability in Alberta? You turn to the SCI AB. Find hope. Connect. Start rebuilding together to achieve independence.
