Help ALEX raise money

For participating in Scotiabank Toronto Waterfront Marathon Virtual Race 2020

My Story…

Dear Friends and Family, 

First of all, we hope that you are safe and healthy during this October month of Thanksgiving despite all of the uncertainty as a result of covid.

Although an in-person ScotiaBank Waterfront fundraiser was cancelled this year, participants are still able to officially walk on our own to raise money for Timothy's school for students with Autism, Giant Steps. If you don't already know, the school is amazing in the education, therapy and resources that they are able to provide for special needs students - much of which is made affordable through donation and fundraising. It's made a REAL DIFFERENCE in allowing Timothy to thrive as a student and individual.

We know that this past half year has been very difficult for many of you and it's with great hesitation that we ask more of many of you whom are already stretched.

If you can support our son Timothy in any amount we would be so appreciative. As I learned last year, "a lot of little amounts eventually meets a big goal". P.S. - he loves numbers and math so we included a picture of him with a calculator, LOL :)

Thank you all so much in advance.

Stay safe !

Alex, Angela and Timothy
