Together, For Better Cancer Care
Colin Hunter took on an incredible challenge by participating in the 50km Sleeping Giant Loppet. Not only was it his first time completing a 50km ski loppet, but he also committed to raising $1,000 for every kilometre skied -with a goal of raising $50,000 in support of exceptional local breast cancer care.
Colin was inspired to take action after seeing a close friend lose their mother in 2018 to breast cancer, motivating him to make a meaningful impact for individuals and families facing cancer in our community, and honouring his friend's mother by dedicating this initiative to her.
Through his dedication and community spirit, Colin worked tirelessly to raise awareness, gather pledges, and inspire fellow local skiers to get involved. Thanks to Colin's efforts and the incredible support of our community pledging, more than $8,000 was raised to support breast cancer care right here in Northwestern Ontario.
