You can Help Change the Lives of Manitobans

Cancer touches nearly every family in Manitoba. More than 7,600 Manitobans will be diagnosed with cancer this year. Despite these numbers, Manitobans with cancer are living longer and better lives due to the availability of new treatments and technologies thanks to the unwavering support of donors. You can help your family, neighbours, and community by supporting local cancer research.

For Neil, donor support of screening programs ensured his colon cancer was caught early, allowing him to receive minimal treatment. When years later he was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia, he knew he could count on donor supported research to influence his treatment plan. Neil received multiple rounds of chemotherapy. He responded well, and his leukemia went into remission—where it remains today.

Your support can lead to better outcomes and more tomorrows for Manitobans like Neil.

Please consider making a donation at cancercarefdn.mb.ca or by calling the Foundation at 204-787-4143. 

Year round Manitobans show up in powerful and personal ways. They choose to show their passion by hosting cozy indoor gatherings, honour loved ones through their special events, outdoor challenges, bake sales and everything in between.  Every dollar raised and every event held is helping to change the future of cancer in our province.

The range and creativity of these enthusiastic supporters is limitless. Their passion makes a difference for so many. One such fundraiser is The Mac Project. Every year on Valentine’s Day, Rika sells Macarons in memory of her dad. In the last nine years, she and her family have raised over $23,000! We encourage you to watch the video below to learn more about how she gets her community involved and why this fundraiser means so much to her.
