Help Sophia raise money

For participating in Scotiabank Toronto Waterfront Marathon Virtual Race 2020

My Story…

The COVID-19 pandemic has posed many challenges to us all during this time of uneasy and unpredictable unrest. Nursing homes especially are challenged due to the lack of funding and equipment provision to help protect our vulnerable elderly population from this disease. The Ukrainian Canadian Care Centre (UCCC) needs funds over what it receives from the government to maintain its level of care. I will be participating alongside members of the UCCC community in the Scotiabank Toronto Waterfront Marathon (virtual) 5K walk/run to fundraise for protective equipment as well as hospital overbed tables (as during an outbreak residents are isolated to their rooms including during meals). Our seniors need us now more than ever to help protect them. 

Every little bit counts and your generosity is greatly appreciated. Thank you for your support, let's do it for our seniors!

Kindly,

Sophia Holowaty
