My Story…

Welcome to my fundraising page!


This year I’m participating in the Around the Bay Road Race 5K on Sunday, April 12, 2026, and it will be my fourth time doing this race. In past years, my mom always came with me and was my biggest supporter at the finish line.


My mom recently passed away, so this year I’ll be completing the 5K in her honour. I’m also inviting anyone who would like to join me to come out and run or walk 5 km for Mom.


While doing the race, I’m raising funds for St. Joseph’s Healthcare Foundation. St. Joe’s is an incredible part of the Hamilton community, and donations help purchase essential hospital equipment that isn’t funded by the province.


Every dollar raised helps provide the tools doctors and nurses use every day to care for patients.


Thank you so much for supporting this cause and helping me honour my mom.



Description

Welcome to my fundraising page!

This year I’m taking on the Around the Bay Road Race and raising funds for St. Joseph’s Healthcare Foundation. St. Joe’s is the heart of Hamilton — nearly everyone I know has been touched by the exceptional care provided here.

Funds raised through Around the Bay will buy much‑needed healthcare equipment at St. Joseph’s Healthcare Hamilton. It may seem surprising that items like ultrasound machines, wheelchairs, and other essential devices aren’t covered by provincial operating dollars. The truth is nearly every piece of equipment used in the Hospital is funded by donations from people like you and events like the Bay Race.

Please know that the money you help me raise has a real, immediate impact on the lives of patients at St. Joe’s. Your support buys the tools clinicians use every day to diagnose, treat, and comfort our neighbours.

Thank you for donating to my campaign and for helping fund the equipment that cares at St. Joe’s.
