Donations – In order to ensure we make our target donation to the IWK of $3000, if you want to, collect some cash or a cheque (made out to the “IWK Health Centre Foundation”) from a friend or two and drop it off on race day, that would be great. All donations will be placed on a pledge form and sent to Joanne Forest (IWK Annual Giving Assistant, 1-800-595-2266). The IWK will provide receipts for pledges equal to $20 and over. Contact me if you want a pledge sheet to canvas for pledges for this event. Thanks.

Why the IWK Health Centre Foundation, my daughter Reagan was born with a congenital heart defect that was successfully repaired at the IWK when she was 7 months old. Simply put this facility saved my daughters life. Reagan will soon be 5 years old and is growing like a bad weed. Come out and meet Reagan who will be participating in the 400m event, and support a great cause too!
