Help Michael raise money

For participating in 2021 Sporting Life Virtual 10k

Help me raise money to send kids with cancer to #CampOoch through the #SL10K https://raceroster.com/events/2021/30892/2021-sporting-life-virtual-10k/pledge/participant/11138861

My Story...

Cancer is a b*tch. It's like saying "VOLDEMORT" but instead, it's real, and it has impacted my life on a personal level with my immediate family. Running? It too, can be a b*tch but the impact is more on the ground and beats up your knees, and then you get sweaty but good sweaty, am I right? Needless to say - it's worth doing if it means that it can help those in need who are fighting the good fight. 

I have never in my life done a 10k jog, let alone a run but I am ready for the challenge and am  looking forward to being victorious with this virtual endeavor.  

We cant buy health, but we can buy quality research, advanced technological equipment and supplies, and we can work to prolong life or cure many cancerous ailments facing all of us, including our youth. These things combined will help contribute to kicking Cancer's a$$, because it cares about no one, that person's plans, their future or their aspirations. We don't need that kind of BS. Who's with me !?

 

I appreciate any support for this great cause, children are the future and they deserve a healthy one.

 

Thanks very much for taking the time to read this, 

 

Michael 

Description

A diagnosis of childhood cancer changes life in an instant. 

For affected kids and families, it can suddenly feel like everything is about cancer. Camp Ooch offers a hopeful journey, where kids with cancer can just be kids, and families connect with a community of strength and support when they need it the most. 

They are much more than a summer camp—they offer the social cure for childhood cancer. Their camp-inspired programs deliver fun, friendship, and community to 1,900 kids and 745 families year-round, all across Ontario. As a response to COVID-19, virtual camp and in-hospital programs continue to reach kids and families living in isolation, wherever they are.

Please consider making a donation to my fundraising efforts—your gift will make a world of difference!

Cancer changes a child’s life. So does camp. And so can you.
