My Story…
Hello friends:
Charitable giving is a powerful expression of social conscience.
Last year I was humbled that my 10Km run had inspired so many supporters. Together, we successfully raised needed funds for our senior community at Hesperus Village; a worthy charity in York Region.
As you know, COVID has had a profound impact on our most vulnerable. The resulting isolation has been hard on our elders. It has also been difficult and expensive, if not impossible, to run programs or fund raising events due to the restrictions.
Last year, with your support and encouragement, I ran 10Km as your partner in charity. This year, I have signed up for the virtual FULL marathon. Yes, 42Km!. What was I thinking!?.
I will no doubt be in much physical pain once I’m done, so please help make it worth the discomfort by supporting my campaign, to reach this year’s personal fund raising goal.
I thank you for your continued generosity and support, but if I may also ask that you please introduce this challenge to friends or organizations that may wish to join us; I will be grateful.
This year’s run is dedicated to the seniors at Hesperus whom have crossed over the threshold this past year – you will be missed, but not forgotten.
Sincerely, your partner in charity,
Cosimo Casale
Description
A rich cultural life, in its varied forms, enhances the health and lives of our residents. Social isolation is unfortunately very common for seniors. Together with our residents, we co-create an enlivened and rich social and cultural life to combat the isolation that some encounter due to physical or emotional challenges or even financial constraints. Your donation will fund the costs associated with organizing a series of social and cultural activities throughout the year.
