This year at the Recitals we will be collecting donations for Canadian Cancer Society
The Canadian Cancer Society’s vision is to have a world where no one fears cancer. Through the support of volunteers and donors, this national, community-based organization fundraises towards research, education and services for more than 100 types of cancers. The CIBC Run for the Cure is one of the Canadian Cancer Society’s signature events that supports the breast cancer cause through a 5KM or 1KM walk or run. With close to 60 events across the country, this inspirational fundraiser is the largest single-day, volunteer-led event in Canada. This year’s CIBC Run for the Cure will take place on October 4, 2020. Learn more at www.cancer.ca or www.cibcrunforthecure.com.
