Local MOH walking in breast cancer fundraiser in Breast Cancer event on Sept. .0 12. The Weekend to End Breast Cancer is a two-day, 60-kilometre walk through the neighbourhoods of Toronto. Money raised will benefit breast cancer research at Princess Margaret Hospital. an international leader in the fight against cancer, and the largest institution in Canada devoted to cancer treatment, innovative research, and informative education programs. "I am walking for the women of my community, my family and my friends whom have been or may in the future be affected by breast cancer" said Henning. "I am walking as a public health physician, for those who may have an increased risk for cancer because of '-'^n their poverty, lack of nutr w.. andu lack of access to health services." During The Weekend to End Breast Cancer, thousands of women and men will walk 60 kms. in a bold display of courage and commitment. Money raised by event participants will benefit Princess Margaret Hospital in Toronto, funding important breast cancer research and education, and cancer care services. This past weekend,- Princess Margaret Hospital announced that the $8.5 million net proceeds raised last year during the first inaugural Weekend to End Breast Cancer Event will be divided between three innovative programs: Survivorship Care, leading edge cancer research at the newly formed Institute for r'ancer Research, and Breast - _ furthering its world-class ,,.`past cancer clinic. The 2003 Weekend to End Breast Cancer was the most successful first-time fundraiser in Canadian history. For the 2004 event, the volunteer crew and walker registrations are full in hopes of building upon last year's success. Breast cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer in Canadian women; one in nine women is expected to develop breast cancer during her lifetime — one in 27 will die. Finding breast cancer early is the key to survival; Princess Margaret Hospital's research and education programs are crucial in the battle against breast cancer. "I am walking for the women I see in who are fi ghting this disease, and for those I win st, the future", said Henning. "I will walk with others who share the commitment to support programs which need to be funded to prevent breast cancer, to provide early detection of breast cancer, and to treat this condition."
