Hi all, 

Thanks for taking a look at my page. I'd like to tell you why I have decided to fundraise and what your donation does.

Many of you know that I lost my father to sudden cardiac death when he was only 65. My youngest daughter Caroline never got to meet her Grandpa. This summer I lost a dear friend, not yet retired , to sudden cardiac death. He so suddenly left a wife, children and grandchildren.

I would like to raise awareness of this leading cause of death for Canadian men and women and help others to recognize the signs of heart disease. 

All of the money I raise will go to the Heart and Stroke Foundation, where they’ll use it to develop life-saving treatments that bring hope to heart disease and stroke patients. In the last year alone, the Heart and Stroke Foundation has helped create 165,000 survivors of heart disease and stroke.

Please help me reach my fundraising goal by making a donation today.

It's only with your help that we can continue to fund this vital research, and return more survivors home to their loved ones.


Thank you so much for your support,

Dawn
