Asthma Society of Canada
Run for the Asthma Society of Canada and help others breathe easier!
Our Vision at the Asthma Society of Canada is to empower every child and adult in Canada with asthma to live an active and symptom-free life.
Our Mission is to be the balanced voice for asthma in Canada, advancing optimal self-management, prevention, research and health care.
Join the Asthma Society of Canada team on Sunday, September 26th, 2010!
3 million people, including 600,000 children in Canada live with asthma, but only 40% are in control of their symptoms. By running for the Asthma Society in the Scotiabank Toronto Waterfront Marathon or making a pledge to someone who is running, you can prove asthma isn't about sitting on the sidelines!
We need your help — whether you have asthma, know someone who does, or are interested in making a valuable difference in asthma care and education across Canada.
You can also sponsor a runner or make a donation by going to www.asthma.ca.
Asthma can be managed, and your participation will help us show Canadians how to manage it.
Please contact Jim Martin by phone (416-787-4050, ext. 100) or e-mail jmartin@asthma.ca for more information about joining Team Asthma!
