About Read for the Cure Canada
Read for the Cure began in 2006 in Toronto, Canada, when two members of a west Toronto book club who had just finished treatment for cancer had a great idea. Acknowledging the important role of reading in their lives and the wonderful support they had received from their fellow members during their treatment, they saw an opportunity to harness the energy of enthusiastic book clubs and readers to raise funds for cancer research. With two other book club members who had close relatives affected by cancer, they formed a committee of four. Together they developed a vision of ways to bring readers and writers together for a wonderful evening while raising funds for cancer research. Since then, with the help of Random House of Canada, our corporate sponsor, we have hosted six annual series of Author Events in October and November. All proceeds from our events are donated to research into environmental links to cancer. In 2011 we donated $146,000 to this research; since our first events in 2007, we have donated over $500,000 to cancer research. Read for the Cure Foundation Inc. is a Canadian non-profit charity operating in Canada only.
