Come out and walk, run, snack, win and most importantly support women’s health at the 2019 Ovarian Canada Cancer Walk in Winnipeg!
The Ovarian Cancer Canada Walk of Hope is the largest and most powerful event of its kind in the country. Held in over 35 communities nationwide, it is the only walk in Canada to direct all attention and fundraising towards helping women with ovarian cancer live fuller, better and longer lives.
Held annually during Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month in September, this family-friendly event raises vital funds to provide support, raise awareness and fund much-needed research into prevention, improved treatments and ultimately, a cure.
Feel free to bring lawn chairs or picnic blankets and spread out amongst the park facing the shelters. Bring your pets, family and friends! There will be more space for Kids Corner and swings close by as well! Fun Run option for those interested!
