Help Jane raise money

For participating in Tamarack Ottawa Virtual Race Weekend 2020

My Story…

RUN FOR ROON “Life is Good", as Roon would always say... Michael was a patient at the University of Ottawa Heart Institute for more than 15 years. Michael passed away suddenly on November 21, 2011 at the age of 52. Since 2012 the Run For Roon Team has been running in Race Weekend to raise funds for the Endowment Fund established in memory of Michael. To date we have raised more than $80,182. We run for those who cannot run, we run because we believe in compassionate Research. We believe that, the Heart Institute Scientists need to connect with our communities to show everyone that what they do is for and with them. Your donations through the Team Heart initiative can be leveraged up to 7 times, with early stage research, going on to secure national grant funding to conduct larger studies. Thanks to your generosity, the Heart Institute will be making discoveries that will change the life of all future heart patients.

Donate to help Jane raise money for Tamarack Ottawa Virtual Race Weekend 2020’s fundraising campaign.
