My Story…

On October 18th, 3 of us are proud to be participating in the 2025 TCS Toronto Waterfront Marathon 5K to help raise money for Dyslexia Canada - an organization very close to my heart both personally and professionally. DC's mission is to ensure that every child in Canada with dyslexia has access to a fair and equitable education. Did you know that dyslexia affects 10-20% of the population, which means that more than 750,000 children in public schools have dyslexia?

The team at DC works tirelessly to provide outreach and support to families, to advocate for change in our education system, and to raise awareness. However, there is still a lot of work to do. We would be immensely grateful for any contribution in support of this incredible charity, so that they can continue their work to ensure that every child across the country realizes their right to learn to read. 

 

 

Description

I will be running in the 2025 TCS Toronto Waterfront Marathon and would like to ask for your help in supporting Dyslexia Canada in its mission to ensure that every child in Canada with dyslexia has access to a fair and equitable education. Did you know that dyslexia affects 10-20% of the population, which means that more than 750,000 children in public schools have dyslexia?

Dyslexia Canada has made some great progress in its mission to provide outreach and support to families with children with dyslexia, change the education system, and bring awareness and recognition to dyslexia. However, there is still a lot of work to do.

Please join me in supporting this charity that is very close to my heart and help ensure that all children have the resources available to them to achieve greater literacy and personal accomplishments. Thank you!
