Sunday’s Run for the Cure has raised $193,000 for cancer research. Spokesperson Hiadee Goldie, tells CHSJ news the money will be used for promoting cancer awareness and finding a cure in Atlantic Canada.
Goldie says this is the first in nine years that it rained on the day of the event–but–adds it didn’t dampen anyone’s spirit. About two thousand people turned out for yesterday’s run.
