Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation (CBCF) CIBC Run for the Cure 2011 October 05
This past Sunday, Oct. 2, 2011, thousands of Canadians across 59
communities gathered for the annual Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation
(CBCF) CIBC Run for the Cure event. Canada-wide, CBCF participants
raised over $30 million, which provides funding for breast cancer
research, increased awareness, early detection, and effective
treatment programs aimed to create a future without breast cancer.
This year, 25 students and faculty from the Department of Pathology
and Molecular Medicine were brought together to join in the special
event held at St. Lawrence College, collectively raising over $3275.
Although the day was met with cold, rainy conditions, this did not
deter Team Pathology and Molecular Medicine from running the 5K
challenge! Thank you and great job to our participants for their
contribution towards creating a breast cancer free future and their
constant dedication to advance human disease treatments through
innovative research!
