OUR CAUSE:
Our vision is for our organization to continue to establish relationships with corporate, business and community leadership who share our goals for the best care possible for cancer patients being treated here and NOW! We believe the Cedars CanSupport ‘Rain or Shine’ Dragon Boat Race & Festival, with the support of these key partners, will continue to raise important monies and public awareness for the practical, humanitarian, educational and emotional needs of cancer patients and their families. We believe in the power of citizens to come together in team-spirit to effect change and make a positive impact in our healthcare system.
Inspired by the spirit, hope and unity of each team of 20 dragon boat paddlers, the Cedars CanSupport ‘Rain or Shine’ Dragon Boat Race & Festival is committed to bring the vision and goals of our organization and partners onto the public stage. In so doing, the cancer patients being cared for at the MUHC will know that their fellow citizens are behind them in harmony and in strength.
