My Story…
Hello all!
I'm once again running in honour of Bridget this year to raise money for Gilda's Club, a place that helped Bridget and her family during their toughest times. I thought it would be great to give you all an update on Lily & Ruby while we're here! Lily is in her last year at York University, studying Political Science and frequenting her parents' old stomping grounds. And Ruby is also in her last year at George Brown College in the Fashion Management Program. Both are also very busy working part time jobs. They definitely carry on Bridget's curiosity/ intelligence, supportive nature and overall loving personality. We are so lucky to have them in our lives, their smiles and mannerisms remind us of Bridget often.
I hope you're all keeping well and healthy, and as always, thank you from the bottom of my heart for your ongoing support of Gilda's Club in Bridget's memory. She is missed every day!
Here's some more information on how your donation will help:
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. Their 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.
