about a donor who helped make a difference!
We are currently providing financial support to a
dedicated team of research doctors at Princess
Margaret Hospital.
Their hope is that information from this study will
lead to the development of novel and cost-effective
screening tests for pancreas cancer
( See article below under
EXCITING NEWS). One hundred
percent (100%) of all monies raised goes toward
research.
A diagnosis of pancreatic cancer should not have to
be a death sentence. Let’s change the feeling of
despair to a feeling of hope.
Together, we can make a difference!

The 4th Annual Dick Aldridge Charity Golf Classic
was a huge success!
Thwack.Fore!!!
A sold-out field of 216 golfers hit the links at
ClubLink's picturesque Emerald Hills Golf Course,
teeing off to raise over $60,000 in net proceeds
that will go directly toward early detection
research. We would like to extend our sincere thanks
to our generous sponsors and participants; without
your enthusiastic support, this tournament would not
be possible!
Several Toronto Argonauts, including coach
Rich Stubler, CFL Hall of Famer Bill Symons,
The Fan590 Colour Analyst and former linebacker
Peter Martin came out to support this cause for
their late friend, Dick. Argo running back Andre
Durie read a letter sent by CEO of the Toronto
Argonauts, Michael "Pinball" Clemons, that paid
homage to Dick by describing our beloved “31” as a
"magnificent talent on the field and a true
ambassador of the game. His legacy will live
on through our foundation and we thank you for helping us tackle this disease".
The Toronto Argonauts have set up a unique
fundraising opportunity through the sale of tickets
for the upcoming October 18th game against Montreal.
Five dollars ($5) from every ticket sold through
this exclusive offer will go towards our foundation.
WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT to insure
that this fundraiser is a SUCCESS!

Pancreatic Cancer is a silent killer. By the time
you realize you have it, it's too late! We have
joined forces with Princess Margaret Hospital and
their dedicated team of research doctors to fund a
study that will determine the effectiveness of
screening tools for the early detection of
pancreatic cancer. Last summer, researchers had a
breakthrough and discovered a test patient who had early signs of pancreatic cancer. This discovery
helped save a life. Perhaps in studying this lethal
killer, doctors will discover a common link that
will provide solutions for other forms of cancer.
A diagnosis of pancreatic cancer should not have to
be a death sentence. Early detection is the
key to eradicating this horrific disease. The
greatest results are achieved when we all work
together toward a common goal. We need your help as
we continue to fight this battle.
Together we can make a difference...
