My Story…
The last year and a half has been tough for a lot of people, including many people I’m in daily contact with at work. This always reinforces for me the many things I have to be grateful for, including a good job, a safe home, a large and loving network of family and friends, and the good health that has allowed running to become an important part of my life. And of course I had a childhood that laid a solid foundation for me being able to achieve all of those things.
Every child should be safe, healthy, happy and have their own safety net of people to support them, but since many are not so fortunate, I’m back for another year in the Charity Challenge. This year it will be virtual event, and throughout the month of October I’ll be joining my CAFC colleagues and supporters in raising funds and awareness for Children’s Aid Foundation of Canada.
If you’d like to learn more about who I’m running for (and who I work for every day), please visit our website.
Thank you for your support!
Description
Children’s Aid Foundation of Canada is our country’s leading charity dedicated to improving the lives of children and youth who have experienced or live at risk of abuse and neglect. Through circumstances beyond their control, thousands of young people lack a safe home and someone to nurture their growth. The Foundation’s Stand Up for Kids national campaign for child welfare was developed to help these kids overcome their trauma and break the cycle of abuse and neglect for future generations. Join the Stand Up for Kids movement to create positive change for vulnerable youth across Canada and transform their prospects for a brighter future!
