Terry Fox Run

“I want to try the impossible to show it can be done.”

RAISING AWARENESS AND FUNDS FOR CANCER RESEARCH

In celebration of Terry Fox's Marathon of Hope, Renaissance College and its community runs, walks, jumps, hikes, swims and dances our way to accumulate as many kilometres as we can! Throughout the Primary and Secondary schools, we raise awareness, much-needed funds for cancer research, and engagement. Support Terry Fox cancer fund and join our efforts for this very worthwhile cause.

SUPPORT CANCER RESEARCH - DONATE TODAY!

To make fundraising more convenient for families we are providing options to donate to The Terry Fox Foundation via PayPal or Pledge Form. We will be organizing our fundraising by our four Houses, which will allow us to see how much we have raised by House as well as by the entire school.

In Hong Kong, all proceeds will support cancer research at institutions approved by The Terry Fox Foundation: The Hong Kong University for Lung Cancer Research, and The Chinese University of Hong Kong’s Department of Clinical Oncology.

No matter what payment method you chose (PayPal or bank transfer), please fill out the pledge form and drop it in one of the donation boxes placed in the Primary Office or the 1618 Cafe.

If you have any questions, please contact James Schulz at schulj1@rchk.edu.hk.
