Virtual Hike raises $198,391.35 !!!
On Saturday, May 9, 2020 we hosted our first ever Virtual Hike. Though we couldn't gather together, participants raised funds through their online fundraising web page, then chose their own 5km path to Hike. We had hikers from across Ottawa, Toronto and even British Columbia. And hike paths ranged from beautiful trails to treadmills. We applaud those of you who hiked on Saturday in Ottawa, braving the chilly temperatures and snow.
A heartfelt thank you to our hikers, donors, sponsors and video providers. And an extra special thank you to our anonymous donor who generously matched gifts up to $50,000! Together we surpassed our goal of $125,000 and raised $198,391.35 which goes directly to the palliative and end-of-life programs and serves we provide to people living with a life-limiting illness and their families.
THANK YOU!
