Help us raise money

For participating in Emera Blue Nose Marathon

Our story…

In 2022 we lost a pillar of our Breaking the Silence (BTS) community when Wilf Bean, life partner of BTS founder Kathryn Anderson, passed away.  

In 2023 we now plan to honor his work and love of this event by dedicating all the moving parts to him.

This annual event has become an important fun!raiser for Breaking the Silence.   With your generous donation, our Maritime-Guatemalan network can continue to support the efforts of Guatemalans who struggle for political, social and economic justice.

100% of your donation will help us undertake essential activities related to advocacy and lobbying as well organize delegations, send interns, volunteers and human rights accompaniers.  We cannot do all of this without your help.

Please donate and maybe even consider joining us by walking or running the 10K on Sunday May 21, 2023 to reflect on the life work of Wilf Bean.

There is something about crossing a finish line that encourages us to do this year and year again.
