Our first big event of the year! In collaboration with W.R.A.C.E., we will be hosting the Inaugural Grey 5K Run/Walk!
The Inaugural Grey 5K will be held May 31, 2025 in the Town of Essex at Sadler's Nature Park and Trail in support of #JaidasJourney - The Jaida Chartier Foundation.
As you know, Jaida Chartier was a 12-year old Essex resident who bravely fought Diffuse Midline Glioma with H3K27 mutation Brain Cancer for 14-months before peacefully passing away July 31, 2024. During her 14-month battle, she showed us all strength, determination and preseverance while uniting the community of Essex, businesses and local fire departments who supported her and her family.
In keeping with a promise made to Jaida by her parents to pay it forward while continuing Jaida's fight against Childhood Cancer, this 5K Run/Walk will raise money to fund Childhood Cancer research, specifically, Pediatric Brain Cancer.
The month of May is significant, as it commemorates Brain Tumour/Cancer month which is symbolized with the Grey Cancer Ribbon. Further, on May 31st, 2023, Jaida's battle began when she was airlifted from Windsor Regional Hospital -Ouellette Campus to London Children's Hospital.
Let's come together to show our continued support of our Hero Jaida. Let's show her that she will never be forgotten and we will continue her battle to find a cure for our littlest heroes!
Registration fee includes custom T-shirt! You can register to walk or run the 5K! This will be a sanctioned Run/Walk through W.R.A.C.E.
Lace up those running shoes, grab a few friends and come on out as we raise funds to further Childhood Cancer research. Let's show Jaida that she will never be forgotten!
