Events
MM5K Walks in Support of Bloom Chair, Princess Margaret Cancer Centre
As we do every year, members of the Toronto and District Multiple Myeloma Support Group have joined other walkers and runners to raise funds for myeloma research in the Princess Margaret’s Weekend to Conquer Cancer. The walks are inspiring and empowering events, full of life and hope, where family, friends, and co-workers, patients and caregivers, doctors and nurses, show that they can make a real difference. The funds raised ensure that the excellent work of the Bloom Chair in Multiple Myeloma Research, led by Dr. Donna Reece, will continue, and the Princess Margaret Cancer Centre will remain one of the leading myeloma research centres in the world.
The 2024 walk took place on June 16. You can still donate on the MM5K Walk website, linked here: mm5kwalk.ca.
Pictures from previous walks can be found on the Multiple Myeloma M-Moving Together Toward the Cure MM5K Walk Facebook site, linked here: https://www.facebook.com/mm5Kwalk.
Myeloma Canada Multiple Myeloma Marches
The Myeloma Canada Marches are held every fall in more than 30 communities across Canada to build awareness and raise funds for clinical research and accelerated access to new, life-changing therapies for Canadians living with myeloma.
Details can be found here: https://myeloma.ca/en/get-involved/multiple-myeloma-march
Walks take place in locations around the Greater Toronto Area including Hamilton, Newmarket, Mississauga, Kitchener-Waterloo, Oshawa, and Cobourg. They attract a lot of support and participation from support group members and other interested persons. Like the Princess Margaret walks, these are opportunities for family and friends to get together, meet new friends and have fun supporting and building awareness for a cause that is of the utmost importance to so many of us.
Funds raised also support the Myeloma Canada’s Priority Setting Partnership (PSP), an initiative that uses community input to identify and define future investments in myeloma research, and the Canadian Myeloma Research Group (CMRG) to help further Canadian research on multiple myeloma.
