Walk Appeal

The annual “Walk-In-The-Park” organized by the St. Stanislaus College Alumni Association-Toronto is scheduled for Sunday, May 16, 2010. The Walk has been renamed the “5Km Walk for Kids Education” to properly identify the purpose for which the monies raised by this event is intended. The Walk will be in Taylor Creek Park, the same venue as last year, between 11.00 a.m. and 1.00 p.m., with a hot dog BBQ afterwards. The Walk Committee has been working diligently towards making this year’s event much better and larger thus generating more funds for St. Stanislaus College, a high school in Georgetown, Guyana, which is the alma mater of the Association’s alumni. We encourage those in the Greater Toronto Area to bring their family and friends for a pleasant Sunday morning walk through an attractive wooded ravine in east Toronto. In order to obtain Pledge Forms to sign up sponsors for your walk, you should contact Errol Chapman, the Chairman of the Walk Committee, either by phone at 416-298-2120 or by e-mail at echapman@st-stanislaus-gy.com. If a Pledge Form cannot be obtained before the walk, just make a note of your sponsors and pledges, and you can obtain a Pledge Form at registration for the Walk and fill it out then. The funds raised from your pledges will be used to help the underprivileged children at the College in Guyana but, at the same time, you will be getting some exercise to keep you fit and better able to enjoy life.

Make a Donation

Those of you who will be unable to be present in person to participate in the walk can still contribute as a sponsor. As well, you can increase your contribution even further by obtaining other sponsors (from your family and friends) for the event. We would then assign all these sponsors and monies pledged to be included on the Pledge Forms of other walkers who have indicated that they will be walking. In this regard, please contact any member of our Executive whose names and contact information can be found on the abovementioned website. We encourage everyone to be involved either as a walker or a sponsor of a walker in this fun-filled family event this year. Please don’t let us down and, more importantly, as one of the phrases frequently used by our members states, “Let’s do it for the Kids”, so that you can contribute in providing much needed help toward the education of those less fortunate and underprivileged children attending our alma mater in Guyana. Thanks for your continued support of our Association and its altruistic goals. Download Flyer
