My Story…

This year, I’m proud to be running as an ambassador in the Pride & Remembrance Run—an event that celebrates how far the 2SLGBTQ+ community has come, while recognizing how far we still have to go. As someone who didn’t grow up with the freedom to fully understand or express my queer identity, I know firsthand how powerful community can be. It’s what helped me grow into the person I am today, and it’s what continues to make our collective progress possible. I’m running not just for myself, but for everyone who’s ever felt unseen, unsupported, or afraid to be who they are. Every donation supports organizations doing the work to create safer, more inclusive spaces for our community. Thank you for supporting this journey—it truly means the world.

Description

Hi friends!

I’m participating in the pride & remembrance run! 

Support and sponsorships for the 2SLGBTQ+ community and events are taking a hit from increasing anti-2SLGBTQ+ sentiment. The pride & remembrance run is dedicated to lifting up and raising funds for important 2SLGBTQ+ programs in the GTA. 

You can help me support them as I raise funds this year for 4 incredible non-profit organizations that are doing amazing work in the 2SLGBTQ+ community. The beneficiaries for this year’s run are: Sherbourne Health Centre, Sunshine Centres for Seniors, the Women's College Hospital Foundation, and the Pride and Remembrance Foundation.

You can find out more about these incredible organizations here

It’s fast and easy to donate, and tax receipts will be issued for every donation over $20. Every donation matters, as we try to reach our goal of raising $325,000 this year! The projects and initiatives that these organizations 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 and remember your why!
