Help Elana raise money

Once again, on Sunday Oct 16, I am participating this year’s TCS Run and Charity Challenge for Gilda’s Toronto. I have worked for Gilda’s Toronto for over 19 years so I know first hand the positive impact we have on those living with cancer. By supporting me in this event, you are helping Gilda’s Toronto continue to provide cancer support groups and programs free of charge to those impacted by cancer and those bereaved from the loss of a loved one to cancer. These supportive programs are crucial to individuals and families who are coping with the anxiety and fear brought on by COVID-19 and the added challenge of cancer in their lives. Gilda’s Toronto continues to provide online support groups, exercise classes, nutrition showcases and other programs that are essential for their wellbeing. In fact Gilda’s Toronto saw a 20% increase in new membership since the onset of COVID-19. Our team of mental health professionals also continue to connect with the children, teens and adults providing much needed support to relieve stress, reduce isolation and provide resources to navigate today’s ever changing healthcare landscape. Please consider supporting me in this event to help ensure that no one has to face cancer alone. I know many of you continue to support me year after year and I am truly grateful. THANK YOU, ELANA
