Rebecca's Hope Charity Cruise is back... Book your calendar for Wednesday, August 20, 2008 and get set to attend the premiere fundraising event on Toronto's harbourfront! Get on board with the help of our sponsor, Mariposa Cruises, for the 5th Annual Rebecca's Hope Charity Cruise. This event (as per usual!) promises to deliver up fun, excitement, and support in the fight against Leukemia.
To date Rebecca's Hope has raised over $800,000 for Leukemia research at Princess Margaret Hospital, funded important research study by Dr. Susan Kao, and provided the major funding for a very special place: Rebecca's Hope Lounge.
None of this would be possible without YOU!
Why Rebecca's Hope...why this event?
"I cannot believe it is five years...all my memories are still there of Rebecca...it is amazing to think how much impact her life has had on so many others, who only really know her through the room.
I see families having a meal, serious conversations, laughing, birthday and anniversary parties, hugs, kids playing...new found friends/patients catching up on the latest new treatment...someplace to go that feels more like a home, and not like a hospital!
- Sarah Nagel, Nurse
"Rebecca's Hope Lounge is bright and welcoming. The microwave has been very convenient. It's a welcome change from the patient bedroom. It has a very friendly atmosphere and provides an opportunity for patients and families to socialize."
- Patient, Princess Margaret Hospital
Eat, drink, and dance the night away as our guests on the journey of hope. On board we can make a difference...together!
Sincerely,
Theo and Paul Borg
