Cancer fundraiser this Sunday at Willows Beach

Post by Obsessioned »

Please consider sponsoring me when I Kayak for a Cure this Sunday.
The 10km kayaking fundraiser is to benefit InspireHealth in Oak Bay. I have been extremely grateful for the services they have provided for me during my nearly yearlong struggle with Hodgkin's Lymphoma.
This fundraiser will be raising money for the bursary fund, to help people in need cover their membership cost.
InspireHealth offers a variety of hugely beneficial programs for people undergoing conventional cancer treatment. Check them out at www.inspirehealth.ca
and click this link to make a donation in my honor:

See you at the beach!

Thank you guys so much! You BWD'er are AMAZING!
You're support was surely felt on Sunday during the paddle.
A handful of us managed to raise over $20,000 for InspireHealth!
It was a huge honour to represent IH as a spokesperson, and to give a little speech before we all left the beach.
Come paddle next year!
And if, unfortunately, you know anyone going through treatment, please recommend that they check out http://inspirehealth.ca

Thanks again!
Steve
