Stride for Change - Walkathon
Over 70 supporters joined us at Springbank Gardens for our 5K non-competitive walk managing to raise over $15,500 for the Chapter. That's so impressive, especially within this current economic climate. We thank everyone for their dedication to our cause and thank you for caring enough to come out and show your support. We'll see you next year on the Next Strides For Change Event.
The Reasons for Giving
The funds we raise help the Chapter in so many ways. For example they allow us to sponsor ten high schools for the MADD Canada multimedia presentation Shattered in May; to sponsor R.I.D.E. sobriety checks, and to send victim families to the MADD Canada National Victims' Weekend and Candlelight Vigil. Your support continues to allow us to offer free services to local families affected by impaired driving. It remains the #1 criminal cause of death in Canada and we are working very hard to change that. We need your help.
So, walk with us (and why not bring your family and friends out with you?) and send out the message that it is never okay to drive while impaired by alcohol and/or drugs.
Together, we can make a difference
