Last year I started my running journey and challenged myself to completing this race for a good cause. It was an awesome experience, and along with other racers and generous donors, we helped the Victoria Sexual Assault Centre raise over $15,000.00 for their essential programming.

For over 40 years, this organization has been a beacon of hope for women and Trans survivors of sexual assault and childhood abuse.

Where do your donations go? They help create a safe, private, and inviting space where recent survivors can share their experiences and no longer feel alone. The Centre offers clinical services for recent survivors 24/7, providing both virtual and in-person individual counseling as well as group counseling. They partner with First Nations communities to ensure culturally relevant healing spaces are available. Additionally, they collaborate with anti-violence organizations to provide crucial information and education throughout Victoria. Their trained compassionate volunteers are always on-call to offer immediate support to those in need.

This year, I am excited to participate in the "Triathlon of Compassion" on June 22, 2025. My goal is to raise $500 CAD. Every dollar counts!

Together, we can make a difference in the lives of those who have faced unimaginable challenges. Thank you for your support!
