CIBC RUN FOR THE CURE
On Oct. 4, thousands of men and women across Canada will come together for the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation CIBC Run for the Cure. This event is dedicated to raising funds for breast cancer research, education and awareness programs.
The Foundation itself was founded by a group of women who had a vision to bring a voice to those affected by breast cancer.
Today, it has stayed true to that vision and has continued to be at the forefront of a movement to raise awareness and mobilize action on breast cancer. Learn more about the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation at www.cbcf.org and the Run for the Cure at www.runforthecure.com.
