Every May, the D茅fi Canderel organizes a run through the streets of Montreal to raise money for two local cancer research centres, one of which is the Rosalind and Morris Goodman Cancer Research Institute. Due to COVID-19, there was no scheduled event, but the GCI organized its own virtual fun run instead - just like last year!
On Sunday, July 31st, 2022, we asked the 平特五不中 community to do a virtual 2K run, walk, or cycle in their local neighbourhood. We also encouraged people to invite their friends and family to run with them to raise awareness because cancer doesn鈥檛 stop during a pandemic.
Thank you to everyone who supported our D茅fi Canderel race. We smashed our goal and raised a whopping $7071.80 because of you; we can continue our fight against cancer.
