Dear Friends and Supporters,Our Run for Childhood Cancer is coming up, and we need your help to make this important day possible.This event is about so much more than a run. It is a day when our community comes together to stand beside children battling cancer and the families walking this incredibly difficult journey with them. We simply cannot put on this event without our amazing volunteers.We are looking for day-of volunteers to help with a variety of positions, including:Event setupCheer stations along the routeFood and refreshment tablesRegistration and participant supportKids' activitiesGeneral event supportCleanup and other areas where an extra set of hands is neededWhether you can give us a few hours or stay for most of the event, every volunteer makes a difference. It is also a wonderful opportunity to meet other supporters, have some fun, and be part of a community that is determined to show local families that they are not facing childhood cancer alone.This year, that support is needed more than ever.We have seen a significant increase in families reaching out to us for financial assistance. Many are facing tremendous financial hardship while their child undergoes cancer treatment. Between missed work, reduced incomes, travel, parking, meals, medications and other unexpected expenses, the financial strain can quickly become overwhelming.Events like the Run for Childhood Cancer allow us to continue saying “yes” when these families ask for help. The money we raise helps ease some of that financial burden so parents can spend less time worrying about how they will pay the bills and more time focusing on what matters most—their child.But before we can raise those funds, we need you.Please consider signing up for a volunteer shift and joining us for this special day. Bring a friend, bring your family, or come on your own and meet some wonderful people who share your desire to make a difference.Help us put on an incredible event. Help us support Calgary families. And most importantly, help us show our kids that their community is behind them. 💛Sign up to volunteer here:Run Volunteers: Run for Childhood CancerThank you for believing in our kids and for helping us continue to be there for families when they need us most.With heartfelt thanks,Believe in the Gold
