“Nobody is ever going to call me a quitter” – Terry Fox
For the first time since 2019, Canadians will come together in-person to participate in this classic Canadian tradition, the Terry Fox Run, raising funds for cancer research. The 42nd annual Terry Fox Run will take place on Sun. Sept. 18th. The event will once again be held in-person, uniting neighbourhoods and schools across Canada as they participate in the 2022 Terry Fox Run. The annual fundraiser carries on Terry’s dream of raising critical funds for cancer research in Canada.
As many of you are now familiar, my participation in the annual Wallaceburg Terry Fox Run has become the highlight of my year. This year marks the 42nd anniversary of the Terry Fox Run; it will mark my 27th year of participating in the Event, and our (Moira and myself) 6th year of co-ordinating the event for Wallaceburg. The Terry Fox Run raises money to help fight cancer and to raise awareness for cancer in communities. Wallaceburg’s Terry Fox Run is a community event run by wonderful volunteers and attended by many dedicated participants. Not only does it raise money for research but it also continues to share the story of Terry Fox.
Terry was not interested in fame and glory when he embarked on his Marathon of Hope in 1980. His sole purpose was to raise money to find a cure for cancer. The most effective way that we could honour Terry’s memory is to continue to organize, participate and donate to Terry Fox fundraising events.
So, in saying this, I am again requesting your generous support towards my individual fundraising efforts as I venture into my 27th year of the Run. Donations can be made at New Vision Optical Centre OR by logging onto the Terry Fox Foundation website and searching out my individual sponsor page, or click this link https://run.terryfox.ca/page/bradleyeggett and use a credit card/PayPal. If you have any issues with this site – please contact me and I will assist!
If you would like to donate to another individual or team or just to the Wallaceburg site (#109) log onto the terryfox.org website and search under donate.
Thank you in advance for your consideration – I appreciate your support!
