The Ontario Relay for Life event experienced great weather had a total of 78 WICC Teams participate across the province. 650 people helped us raise over $386,000 to #fightforacure and support the Canadian Cancer Society! Our 10th anniversary Relay for Life event took place on June 15th, 2018 with the support of the insurance industry and teams of family members, friends, colleagues, and the public, all convening at Downsview Park in North York. Now coming close to the end of the year, we’re still on the lookout for final numbers to roll in with regard to Q4 company matching. The Relay Team Committee is hoping to increase the final fundraising number to $400,000! Haven’t participated in the Relay for Life before? Please watch our video and come join us in next year to help raise awareness and funds to support cancer research and programs for those affected by cancer. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5TTqzxAGbwk&feature=youtu.be
