Canadian Mudd Queens Charity for 2014

Welcome to the Canadian Mudd Queens blog about charity events. Each year we will be supporting a different cause. In 2014 the Canadian Mudd Queens will be raising money for the Sears Great Canadian 100k Relay to End Kids Cancers through various fund raising events.  The Sears 100k Relay is an annual event and in 2013 the Mudd Queens team  raised a total of 3 300$. In 2014 we will be running the relay again but with 3 or more teams. Our goal is to collect 10 000$. Tentatively we will have 2 teams in Ottawa and one team in Toronto. The Toronto relay will be September 20th 2014  and in Ottawa it will be on October 4th 2014.

Why we picked this charity, as per their website: "We run because we want children in our communities to spend more time at the playground than they do at the hospital, more days learning how to play soccer than about the side effects of chemotherapy..."

We will be kicking off our efforts with the The Sears Great Canadian Chill on January 1st 2014 by jumping into the cold waters of Britannia beach in Ottawa. Donations will be collected at various events we attend and create until the end of the year. You can, however, donate at anytime by visiting this blog and clicking the donate button on the right.

We look forward to offering exciting fund raising events for all of you and helping fun research to end kids cancers. If you have any questions about the fundraising or the Canadian Mudd Queens please feel free to send us an e-mail. Stay tuned!
