Make a donation to the BrainTumour Foundation of Canada
The Banff Jasper Relay is run in support of the Brain Tumour Foundation of Canada and their research efforts. ​
​
Your participation in the Banff Jasper Relay, whether as a participant, sponsor, or supporter will contribute to the event's success and its ongoing support of The Brain Tumour Foundation of Canada.
​
Brain tumours are unpredictable and complex. They can affect vision, hearing, memory, balance, and mobility. Their effects are physical, emotional, financial, and last a lifetime. Every year, thousands of Canadians affected by brain tumours find emotional support and comfort while gaining a better understanding and knowledge of their disease through a range of programs and services available through the Brain Tumour Foundation of Canada. This includes: up-to-date brain tumour information material, education events and support groups. Important brain tumour research is also supported through annual grants, a fellowship and the brain tumour tissue bank. The Brain Tumour Foundation of Canada is working towards its vision to find the cause of and a cure for brain tumours while improving the quality of life for those affected.
​
Thanks to all of you, the Banff Jasper Relay has raised over $500,000 for the Brain Tumour Foundation of Canada since 2005, including over $20,000 in the 2021 virtual race. Please help us meet our goal of raising $67,500 in 2022. If each runner on all 60 teams donates and raises a total of $75 we will meet our goal!
