Hello my dear friends and family,

Thank you for taking a moment to review my fundraising page.  I'd like to tell you why I have decided to fundraise this year for the Heart and Stroke Foundation and how your donation will make a difference.

As some of you may know, I lost my Dad (Bill Durkee) over 30 years ago to a massive heart attack. I still miss my father to this very day, and it is in his memory, and all the lives of others that I have known with heart and/or stroke related illnesses, that I am participating in the 2020 campaign.

Cardiovascular disease is a leading cause of death for Canadian men and women and I want to help change this, so that’s why I’m fundraising to create more survivors.

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.

Susan (Sue/Susie) Durkee-Bowers
