5K Run/Walk for Lynne

Central United Church (CUC) is working to raise awareness and funds for groundbreaking ALS research at Sunnybrook Hospital's Brain Sciences Program, in honour of longtime CUC member and Unionville resident, Lynne Pulenzas. This 5K run/walk event is not only a fundraiser - it is a celebration of Lynne's strength as she has faced this disease, her legacy of kindness, and the love that surrounds her. To learn more about Lynne's story click here. By coming together in an active way, we honour her fight and help move closer to a world without ALS.

To walk or run with us, and help work towards eliminating ALS, click the "Register" button! As you register, you will be prompted to set up your own fundraising page to send to your friends and family. We suggest a fundraising goal of $1000, but any amount is great! You can also make your own donation to Sunnybrook as part of the registration process.

To donate to Sunnybrook without registering to walk or run, click one of the "Donate Now" buttons or click "Donate to Participant" to the left of the page to sponsor a specific walker/runner's fundraising efforts. Charitable tax receipts will be automatically issued by Sunnybrook through Race Roster for donations over $10.

If you need help setting up or sharing your fundraising page, please contact church staff - Christina Ng.
