In memory of Sister Lucy, Team Captain Mandy Parker has set a goal of raising $10,000 with all of the money raised supporting the Room to Care campaign. This campaign will repair and renew the rooms of the 250 frail, elderly and vulnerable members of our community who call Mount St. Mary Hospital their home every year. Mount St. Mary is where they receive exemplary complex care services in a home-like setting that supports their independence, dignity and quality of life.

Your registration can be FREE if you commit to raising $500 in donations to support room renovations to ensure safety, comfort and accessibility for our residents. Please contact Jane at jbowers@mtstmary.victoria.bc.ca for your FREE registration code before August 15. Or, if you’re not sure how many pledges you will collect, you can still join our Charity Pledge Program Team when you sign up here www.raceonline.ca/events/details/994 and says the experience to date is still very rewarding and he is proud to be apart of IIBG/CG in helping support.
