Running Poorly for Babies - Kaytie Fundraiser

Help Me Survive This 5K (and Support a Great Cause!)

Hey everyone! Despite not being a runner, I have somehow signed up to run a 5K. That’s right—I’ll be huffing, puffing, and possibly questioning all my life choices, all in the name of a great cause!

I’m fundraising for the AGH Run for Women’s & Newborn Health, with all proceeds going to the Almonte General Hospital’s Obstetrics Unit. Honestly, I don’t have a goal - I just want to contribute, so any support is greatly appreciated.

This cause is especially close to my heart because both of my kids were born at AGH, and I’m incredibly grateful for the amazing care we received.

Fun fact (or mildly shocking fact): 73% of Ontarians don’t realize that the provincial government doesn’t fund the clinical equipment hospitals use. That means our healthcare workers rely on community support to get the tools they need to take care of us.

So, while I’ll be gasping my way across the finish line, you can support from the comfort of your couch by making a donation. Let’s come together and support our local hospital—because every little bit helps (and frankly, so do words of encouragement for my poor legs).
