Help Alexandra raise money

Colorectal Cancer is the #1 cause of cancer death in men under 50 and # 2 in women under 50.

We need to raise awareness. 

For Aimee.

Who never got a fair shake. 

Aimee was a vibrant and ambitious 37-year-old new mother when she was diagnosed with stage 4 (metastatic) colon cancer in the fall of 2022. The cancer was aggressive; it had BRAF-V600E gene mutation, which is associated with poor response to chemotherapy and reduced survival outcomes.

She saught help and learned so much, she advocated, and appreciated every day like a gift. She fought hard and shared her journey while exhausting all options. Aimee died at the end of 2023; at 38 years old, newly married to the love of her life, mother to an incredible just-turned-2-year-old; a proud and successful hairstylist, business owner, daughter, sister, wife, aunty, friend, and author.

She was beloved and admired. It's unfair that she is not here with us to run and play, to age, witness, work, try, fail, learn, grow, appreciate, change, and show up.

Long-live Aimee's legacy of colour and light, of fun, cool fashion, big laughs, deep love, and wild ambition. 

May we keep running, dancing, living, and growing with Aimee in our hearts.

Aimee Cox is eternally loved and terribly missed every day.

Our funds from this event go toward colon cancer research, enhancing patient support programs for families living with colon cancer, and raising awareness of colon cancer screening and prevention.

Canada has one of the highest colon cancer rates in the world, affecting 1 in 16 Canadians. But 90% of deaths could be prevented with screening,

Any Amount helps.

Thank you
