My Story…
Hello everybody!
This March 27th I will be running (probably more like jogging) the 30km Around the Bay road race!
In efforts to support fellow healthcare workers during these unsettling times, I am raising money for the local St. Joseph's Healthcare Foundation.
As an ICU nurse myself, I have personally felt the many stresses and burdens COVID-19 has created . Working through this pandemic has taught me many many things, but most importantly I have learned that we need to stick together! and appreciate all of the things we have!!
Every little bit helps. The link is attached to this post if you would like to consider donating :)
Thanks!
Avery
Description
Welcome to my fundraising page!
I’m very excited to be participating in the 2022 Around the Bay Road Race (ATB) in support of St. Joseph’s Healthcare Foundation. This cause is very important to me because St. Joe’s is in many ways the heart of Hamilton – nearly everyone in our community has been touched by the incredible patient care they provide, and inspired by the bravery the Hospital’s care teams showed during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Funds raised through this year’s Bay Race will support the expansion and renewal of our Emergency Mental Health Services – a service that has never been more important than it is right now as we all cope with the ongoing effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. As well, funds raised will bring us one step closer to creating a new CT Suite in our busy Emergency Department. A CT Suite in the ER will help our patients get the answers they need quickly while also helping our Hospital to catch up on the backlog of diagnostic imaging procedures put on hold during the peaks of the pandemic.
I hope that you’ll consider supporting me as I take on the Around the Bay Road Race and raise funds for St. Joe’s. I’m encouraged by the support I’ve already received, but I still need your help to reach my fundraising goal. Every dollar we raise together will support hope, healing and discovery at St. Joe’s. Please consider donating today.
Thanks for your support!
