Terry Fox 2009 KL

These students from our Canadian Program, rose at 5:45 am to board two buses at 6:15 am and they volunteered their time until 1:00 pm at the Annual Terry Fox Cancer Research Event in Kuala Lumpur. It was quite impressive to see their dedication to the cause.



Lindsay & Christine are two teachers from Taylor's College who also chaperoned the students. It was well worth the effort. There were wall to wall people running for the Terry Fox cause. I am so proud to be Canadian, especially that day, when the host explained that Terry Fox is a young Canadian who tried to run across Canada to raise money for cancer research.

Jimmy Hendrix even showed up..and we all thought that he was dead...I think his time was 7 km in 55 minutes.


 At one point I wasn't sure which way to go.
