Help Karissa raise money

For participating in 2022 TCS Toronto Waterfront Marathon

My Story…

I have been working as a Program Facilitator with ICO since September 2021. I run a Homework Club for children in Grades 1-5. I absolutely love my job! Not only do I get to work with kids on a daily basis, but this program is so much more than homework help, and it is all free! During March Break and over the summer, we provide camps at extremely low costs so that families who normally couldn’t afford a camp experience for their child can now participate and make lifelong memories. I get to walk alongside families, many of whom don’t receive the support they need elsewhere, in their children’s intellectual, social, emotional and mental development. 


These kids are the reason why I am running this October. Would you contribute to my fundraiser and help me make an impact on their lives? As a small non-profit, the majority of our funds come from donations like yours. I know it can feel like a small donation wouldn’t accomplish much, but even a small amount can go so far. 

Donate to help Karissa raise money for 2022 TCS Toronto Waterfront Marathon’s fundraising campaign.
