My Story…
Hello Everyone
I hope this note finds everyone in good health , 2020 certainly has been an interesting year to say the least ! The Covid-19 experience has changed so much of our lives .
Unfortunately due to circumstances, we were unable to host many of our Annual fundraising events for the President’s Choice Children’s Charity here in Atlantic Canada .The need in our community however has never been greater.
I wanted to thank all of you for your generosity over the last number of years in support PC Charity here in Atlantic Canada .
On November 7 , I will be running the 20k Half Marathon portion of the Bluenose Virtual Marathon in support of the President’s Choice Children's Charity . This is an amazing charity which helps to provide much needed nutritional support to children in our community .
I am really proud to be a part of this cause and hope you will sponsor me for this fundraising event . I am hoping that our collective efforts will help me raise $10,000 this year .
Thank you very much for your ongoing support .

Description
Established in 1989, President’s Choice Children’s Charity has been dedicated to helping children across Canada, and in that time has granted $192 million, reaching more than 5.1 million children. Since 2018, we have been committed to the fight against childhood hunger because we believe we have a vital role to play in providing access to good food and food education, ensuring all Canadian children can be, and should be, their happiest and healthiest – now, and in the future.
PC Children’s Charity is Canada’s top charitable funder of school meal programs, but we also reach children with a variety of programs after school, on the weekend and throughout the summer. Through a dedicated network of schools, trusted community programs and partners, PC Children’s Charity is ensuring that children at risk for hunger have a well-balanced meal every day, and are empowered to take charge of their eating habits by growing their food knowledge – providing the daily building blocks to live their life well.
The charity’s founder, Loblaw Companies Ltd, generously covers the cost of administration so every dollar raised goes to programs that make a direct impact on kids. Supported by Loblaw's network of more than 1,100 grocery stores, millions of customers and almost 200,000 employees, in 2019 the charity reached more than 800,000 children nationwide.
