The Terry Fox Run is in recognition of any students, staff, and those in our community who have been affected by cancer. Terry Fox was diagnosed with osteogenic sarcoma (bone cancer), and has recently impacted the life of one of our own SCS students who has been diagnosed with osteosarcoma, the same cancer as Terry Fox.
To show our love and care, we would like to participate in the Terry Fox Run as a school community to support our own student and his family through raising funds to contribute to the ongoing fight for a cure against cancer.
Our goal is to raise a minimum of $5,000. SCS is not collecting any money at the school, so do not send cash/cheques with students.
