Hello to our Chaffey-Burke families,
Our annual Terry Fox run will be taking place on the afternoon of Thursday, September 25th. The Terry Fox campaign the year is “Finish It.” Building on that our fundraiing theme for this year is “Five for Fox to Finish It”.
Each year the Terry Fox Foundation provides millions of dollars to cancer reseach groups throughout Canada. The money raised has help researchers make significant advancements in the treatment of many types of cancer. Your donations will continue to help develop cures and treatments in the fight against cancer.
Five for Fox:
Pledge sheets will be going home with your child on today . These can be returned to your child’s teacher with cash, or a cheque made out to The Terry Fox Foundation. Your child can also encourage friends and family to donate online at our school donation page. We do not want students or families to solicit door to door, but rather the idea of Five for Fox can be used to ask family and family friends for donations. Donations can be brought to the school and we will have a group of students go around to the classes each morning collecting the money raised. Alternatively, you and your friends can use the link below to donate at the Chaffey-Burke page on the Terry Fox webpage.
