Terry Fox, a Cancer Victim and Victor

Terry Fox, a legend and inspiration in all of our minds. The man who ran across Canada with a prosthetic leg, but who died before he could finish his amazing undertaking.

Next week, on the 25th of September is the celebration and remembrance of Terry Fox. Although his mission was ended tragically, he still reigns victorious. Because of him, we are inspired to raise the money he did not have the chance to raise. Because of him, over $400 Million dollars has been raised worldwide for cancer research in his name.

Next week, let us all show the appreciation and the perseverance of Terry by taking part with your school in the Terry Fox run! We can win the fight against cancer!
