The Foundation
Make a difference in the fight against
childhood cancer.
Coast to Coast Against Cancer Foundation is a registered Canadian charitable foundation. It is focused on improving the quality of life of children with cancer and their families. To this end, the Foundation raises funds by conducting memorable events that encourage an active, healthy lifestyle. Over the past five years, close to $5 million has been raised through the annual “Tour For Kids” cycling adventure, “The Inside Ride” cycling fund-raising program and several cross-continent cycling events. Part of the Foundation’s mandate is to inspire wellness, encourage volunteerism within our communities, and instill a sense of pride and purpose in everyone that is touched by a Coast to Coast Against Cancer Foundation event.
Donation Report
In 2011, Coast to Coast Against Cancer Foundation ('CTCACF') celebrated a truly amazing year, raising and distributing over $5,000,000 for deserving childhood cancer charities across Canada! We just couldn't have done this without you, our amazing sponsors, donors, volunteers, and participants.
Together this year, we have visited hundreds of communities across the country, engaged over 15,000 participants in our events, worked with hundreds of volunteers and processed over 75,000 individual donations. Together, we have collected millions of dollars for childhood cancer and distributed 100% of every single donation we raised to the cancer charities we support across Canada. Together, we have made a meaningful difference in the lives of thousands of children and their families living with and beyond cancer.
