"Terry Fox’s dream was to run across Canada, to raise money for cancer research. His goal was to run over 8,000 km from the east coast of Canada to the west coast of Canada. He named his run, The Marathon of Hope and started it on April 12, 1980. He ran for 143 days and was then forced to stop because the cancer returned. Now every year, more than 8,000 schools across Canada hold a Terry Fox Run to help Terry’s dream for a world without cancer come true." www.terryfox.org
To help support his efforts of raising money for cancer research, we are asking students to bring in a Toonie for Terry all week long. Your generosity and support is greatly appreciated.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask.
