Why Support the 5K Your Way?

The 5K Your Way offers teams and individuals an opportunity to fundraise for many areas of Toronto General Hospital and Toronto Western. With that kind of flexibility, you can raise money for what matters most to you.



Where Does the Money Go?

The proceeds you raise from 5K Your Way will be split evenly between the area you choose and the Opportunities Fund. Supporting the hospitals' and Foundation’s highest priorities, the Opportunities Fund is a remarkable resource for funding urgent medical research and equipment costs that impact a multitude of diseases…and great numbers of lives.
