My Story
Hi! This race marks my return to running after having a kiddo. Now that my daughter is almost three, she is a major turtle enthusiast and very excited to "run the zoo with mama" and help save the Blanding's Turtles.
Thanks for your support!
Description
This year’s Oasis ZooRun is raising funds and awareness for Blanding’s Turtles!
With a fundraising goal of $110,000, every dollar raised will help support the Toronto Zoo’s Blanding’s Turtle Headstart Program and its new home inside the Community Conservation Centre.
By supporting my fundraising efforts, you’re helping provide a dedicated space where Blanding’s turtle eggs can be safely incubated and hatchlings cared for before they are released into the wild. This new space will also give Zoo guests the opportunity to see the hatchlings up close and learn firsthand about the vital conservation work happening at the Toronto Zoo.
Thank you for helping protect Blanding’s turtles and supporting wildlife conservation.
