Schools across the Richmond School District once again demonstrated the power of community and compassion by raising more than $53,000 through the 2024 Terry Fox School Run. This collective effort contributed to nearly $14 million raised nationwide, supporting vital cancer research in honour of Terry Fox’s enduring legacy.
Students and staff came together to participate in this annual event last fall, reflecting Terry’s values of courage, perseverance and generosity. Their commitment to making a difference was recognized by The Terry Fox Foundation, who celebrated Richmond for its leadership and participation.
Richmond’s involvement in the Terry Fox School Run is a shining example of how purpose-driven learning can inspire positive action. Together, schools across the district are helping to advance cancer research, honour a Canadian hero, and show what’s possible when communities come together.
