Our annual Terry Fox campaign will kick off Monday September 16. Last year Dalhousie school was recognized for coming in at #12 in the Top 50 Fundraisers of Alberta, raising an incredible $7,493.95. This year we are hoping to match or exceed last year’s efforts. 

As a school community, we will be taking on the challenge of running the 5373 kilometres that Terry ran during his Marathon of Hope. The week on September 23-26, all students will be contributing to our efforts by running/walking and counting their laps during gym time. We hope to complete out feat during our school wide “No Matter What” run on October 1 that celebrates Terry’s determination and persistence. 

Pledge forms will be sent home on Monday September 9 with students and they can be returned to school by September 26th. Online donations can also be made to the Terry Fox foundation using our school’s page https://schools.terryfox.ca/DalhousieSchoolCalgary

Toonies for Terry will also be collected starting Monday September 16.
