Most of us know someone who has been affected by breast cancer and a great event is the CIBC Run for the Cure held in major Canadian Cities each year. This year in Vancouver it’s on Sunday October 5th. It’s a great day for Breast Cancer awareness and as importantly, a time to raise money to find a cure for this dreaded disease that strikes too many women and some men.

Run for the Cure

The Run was created in 1992 by a small group of volunteers in Toronto with over 1,500 participants and raised $85 000. Today it is Canada’s largest single-day, volunteer-led fundraising event dedicated to breast cancer research, education and awareness and last year raised over $27 million dollars!
