Walk For Claire

Claire Rogers was a student at Tamworth Elementary School who passed away in 2011 from leukemia.   We hosted a Light the Night for Claire in our community in memory of Claire. (Oct 2013)

Light The Night (Oct 2013) was a fundraiser for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society of Canada (LLSC). Light the Night Walk is The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s walk to build awareness of blood cancers as well as raise money for research and support of patients and their families. It is held in over 200 communities in North America each fall as well as in Australia.

If participants collected $100 or more in pledges they were eligible for a luminary and a t-shirt. (Oct 2013)

Collecting pledges is not a requirement for A Walk For Claire, everyone welcome to come for the walk and show support.
