Yard Sale for the Cure
The Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation Yard Sale for the Cure is a series of yard sales that takes place throughout the summer in local communities across Canada in support of the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation. Every dollar raised through the Yard Sale for the Cure goes towards breast cancer research, health promotion, advocacy, education and awareness programs.
Started in 2005 by Rachel Smith, a cancer survivor, who along with friends and family held the first yard sale in the Toronto Beach community. Yard Sale for the Cure, now in its fourth year, is a signature fundraising event for the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation, and has raised over $1,500,000.00 to date.
We are participating in the event this year for the first time. If you have any items that are sitting around collecting dust and taking up space, consider contributing to this cause that has an impact on our families and our communities. We are happy to pick up the item(s) (as long as the items fit in our car).
