Help Amanda raise money

In September, I will be running my very first half marathon;  The Canada Army Run.

I am raising funds for two incredible organizations:

Support Our Troops was established in 2007 to meet the unique needs and special challenges faced by members of the Canadian Armed Forces community as a result of military service. It operates within Canadian Forces Morale and Welfare Services.

 This includes providing financial assistance to promote family resiliency and to support the recovery, rehabilitation, and reintegration of members with a physical and/or mental illness or injury.

 Well recognized by its trademarked yellow ribbon, the organization also provides an opportunity for supporters to show their care, compassion and support to serving members, veterans and their families through donations, attending community events and fundraising.

The Soldier On program is a highly visible and integral program of the Canadian Armed Forces Transition Group. Since its creation in 2007, Soldier On has supported over 11,500 ill and injured serving and veteran military personnel with a permanent or chronic disability (visible or non-visible). This support enables participating members to attain an active and healthy lifestyle. Soldier On supports these personnel by helping them increase their independence, by challenging them to develop new skills and achieve new goals, and by opening the door to other life opportunities. Soldier On, supported by generous Canadians, furnishes an opportunity for its ill/injured members to socialize and explore common interests, and share learning experiences through peer-based program delivery.

Please consider donating. 🇨🇦🫶
