Introduction
For the past 5 years our very own $Moonbeam13 has been involved in supporting and raising money for The Weekend To End Breast Cancer event in Toronto.
She has done this in a fairly quiet and discreet way so we felt it was time to shed a bit more light on what exactly she does for this great cause.
To give a bit of background, in the past 4 years this organization has raised over 60 million dollars in donations and through this has made some landmark strides in advancing the research on breast cancer, which claims the lives of close to 50,000 women a year and about a quarter million women diagnosed per year.
This money does make a big difference in helping with in depth gene studies and creating specialized programs for people diagnosed with the disease.
The Weekend To End Breast Cancer takes place all across Canada. In Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton, Winnipeg, Ottawa, Montreal, and $Moonbeam13's hometown of Toronto, where for the last 4 years and soon to be 5, she has participated in the 60k walk. That?s 37.28 miles to you Americans.
To participate in the walk, each person must raise $2000 to qualify and that is no easy task in and of itself. As of right now she has raised about 2600 dollars but we think she can do much better than that with the help of a community of 5 million strong!
This year the event takes place September 8th and 9th, so time to help is limited.

Bless you people in Canada .
Lets keep our mums,sisters wives,workmates,partners,lovers etc alive.
My Auntie in Toronto had a partial mastectomy last year.
It sucks.
Yay to Moonbeam.
Umm... could you guys do something about the jays and the leafs?It's doing my head in.
Then my mum suddenly showed me the skates and what did I see on them?! On the side of each skate there was the pink ribbon logo thing.
I immediately bought them!
I seriously never really expected to see anything related to the Breast Cancer Foundation here in Germany.
