About The Weekend
The Shoppers Drug Mart® Weekend to End Women's Cancers™ benefiting The Campbell Family Institute at The Princess Margaret is an evolution of our historic journey for all women. During one amazing weekend, September 8-9, 2012, thousands will join together to walk the epic 2-Day or amazing 1-Day distance, united in the battle against all women’s cancers. All Walkers will be fully supported with regular Pit Stops, hydration, food and medical care--should it be needed. It’s a massive undertaking, and that’s why participation is more critical than ever. This year, we are kicking off Ten Years Strong in the effort to end women's cancers, once and for all. We're recognizing the incredible impact The Weekend has made in the fight to end cancer so far-- but we're not done yet! Thanks to the incredible commitment from participants who have been with us from the very beginning, we are still making strides in raising funds to benefit The Campbell Family Institute at The Princess Margaret Hospital. The Weekend was built upon the courageous efforts by everyday people, transforming a small grassroots effort into one of Canada’s biggest difference-making endeavours for all women. Weekend funds support the critical work of The Campbell Family Institute at the Princess Margaret and their efforts to end breast and gynecologic cancers in our lifetime, diseases that one in seven Canadian women will be diagnosed with in her lifetime. Together we can help impact the lives of thousands throughout Toronto and across Canada; each step that we take leads us closer to a cure for both breast and gynecologic cancers. One Weekend truly can make a lifetime of difference. About The Princess Margaret Hospital  Media Backgrounder About Women's Cancers in Canada
