Terry Fox-“Marathon of Hope”-41st Anniversary

Posted September 14, 2021

Paisley Road Public School is excited to continue to support cancer research through our school run planned for the week of October 4th to the 8th.

Terry once said, “Anything is possible if you try.” Today, 41 years later, we will have to innovate as well – we can’t think of anything that Terry would appreciate more.

Each class has signed up for their own time to go out into our school yard to participate in this weeklong event. We are following provincial health guidelines to ensure everyone’s safety, which is paramount.

While this year’s event might look a bit different, our goal remains the same: to raise funds for cancer research. We will need your help. Normally we would collect “Toonies for Terry”, but this year we are asking those that can, make a donation directly to the Terry Fox Foundation in our name.

Here’s the Paisley Road Public School fundraising link:

Terry faced many challenges during the Marathon of Hope, believing he could change the world with effort and perseverance. We are following in his footsteps…we can’t think of anything that would make Terry prouder.

Thank you for your support.
