My Story…
In January 2021, I started running out of desperation to cope with life in covid and in general lbr.
Running has become indispensable to my sense of well-being and was a solo activity for a long time - until I joined the first QRC run in Aug 2021. That was the first time I ran with a group (although I quickly lost them lol), and it was such a lovely experience with a friendly group. For me, it was a nice way to ease out of lockdown, allowed me a space to socialize with more than just my cats, a wholesome way to meet other queers, and showed me how running can be more than just a solo activity. It’s incredible to see how much QRC has grown and the community it has built. And they are always there for us week after week.
This is my first time doing the pride run, and running with QRC is so fitting. I am fundraising for Team QRC and ultimately all go to support non-profits doing essential work for the queer community.
Your support would be so so appreciated!!
Description
Hi friends!
I’m participating in the pride & remembrance run, and I’m so excited to run with pride!
I need your support, as the run is raising funds for 6 incredible non-profit organizations that are doing amazing work in the 2SLGBTQ+ community. The beneficiaries for this year’s run are: AIDS Committee of Toronto, Fife House, Gilbert Centre, HQ Toronto, Rainbow Railroad, and the Pride and Remembrance Foundation.
It’s fast and easy to donate, and tax receipts will be issued for every gift over $20. Every donation matters, as we try to reach our goal of raising $250,000 this year! The projects and initiatives that these non-profits are developing will make a difference to so many members of the 2SLGBTQ+ community, and I would be so grateful for your donation.
Thanks again for your support as we have another fun, fast and fab! run this summer!
