Terry Fox Run

Support Cancer Research Today!

The Terry Fox Run is an annual non-competitive charity event held in numerous regions across the world in commemoration of the late Canadian cancer research activist, Terry Fox, and his Marathon of Hope to raise money for cancer research. Canadian International School, in association with Cytecare Cancer Hospitals and The Galleria Mall (Bangalore), is organizing its 12th annual Terry Fox 5K run.
