BC Children’s Hospital RBC Race for the Kids: A Personal Journey

On Sunday, June 8th, I’ll be participating in the BC Children’s Hospital RBC Race for the Kids, running or walking either the 2K or 5K to help raise funds and awareness for a cause that is very close to my heart.

As a former leukemia patient at just 4 years old, I know firsthand how important it is to have access to world-class care when you’re a child fighting for your life. The treatment I received at BC Children's Hospital played a pivotal role in my recovery, and now, I want to give back.

This event is an opportunity for all of us to come together and support kids who are facing serious health challenges. Every step we take and every dollar raised helps these kids be mighty, just like I was.

I invite you to join me on June 8th, whether by running, walking, or supporting the cause in any way you can. Together, we can make a difference in the lives of these incredible children. Let’s help them be mighty!
