"McGill's Answer for Cancer" team training session (Run for the Cure)

For the fourth year in a row, McGill is making a commitment to reach out beyond the Roddick Gates by raising funds for breast cancer research, education, and awareness programs. On Sunday, October 2, members of our community will walk and run in the 2016 Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation CIBC Run for the Cure in Montreal. Join us for bi-weekly training sessions in advance of the run!* All registered participants will be welcome to join training sessions organized by our team.

Our main goals are to have as many McGillians and friends as possible participate and to emphasize the "fun" in fundraising! Last year, our group of McGillians and adopted McGillians helped our team become one of the city's top fundraisers, bringing in almost $14,000 for this important cause. We are aiming to surpass that amount this year, so we need your help. We hope that staff, faculty members, students, and alumni will join us in supporting this great cause. If you are not able to take part on October 2, we hope you will donate to the team and raise additional funds on our behalf.

Please join McGill's Answer for Cancer, cheer us on, and support us as we get ready to run and walk for breast cancer research in October. Thank you in advance for your generosity.

*In the event of rain, training sessions will be cancelled.
