Bladder Cancer Canada Awareness Walk 2020

 On behalf of the 80,000 Canadians living with a bladder cancer diagnosis, thank you so much, for your commitment and support of our 2020 walk, during a year when we know that giving (and motivation) was difficult.

It’s no secret. Many charities struggled with fundraising last year and “more than 70% of charities in Canada are expecting to raise less money in 2020,” according to the Association of Fundraising Professionals.

In 2020, your support was more important than ever before.

At Bladder Cancer Canada, we recognized the need to change the format of our Awareness Walk early on – from in-person events to a month-long campaign of virtual activities.  Collectively, and despite much uncertainty and hurdles, we rallied hard to raise funds to support patients, increase awareness and fund research.

In the weeks leading up to September, as hundreds of Canadians collected thousands of donations and followed through by walking in their own “back yards”, we watched our numbers climb.

In a year when so many charities struggled to raise funds, we were able to raise more than $430,000. That’s impressive and it’s thanks to supporters, volunteers, donors and walk participants, that we were able to accomplish what we did.

We are already planning for this year’s walk.  Subscribe to our newsletter to ensure you don’t miss out on updates! You can also follow us on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.

“Today we walked for my Mom, and the 12,000 other Canadians diagnosed with bladder cancer every year. Even though bladder cancer is the 5th most common, it is one of the most under-recognized and under-funded cancers in Canada.

Mom has been lucky to benefit from recent advancements in treatment made possible by BCC – an organization that depends on #BCCWalk proceeds to support its mission: patient support and education; public and medical community awareness to promote earlier detection; and funding critical medical research.”
