We have organized a Fitness Class Fundraiser for one of our very own, Chris Augusto, who has been a part of our Fitness Team for more than 15 years. His youngest son, Isaiah, has just been diagnosed with ALL - a form of leukemia. Treatment for this cancer will be intense and long. He must stay in the hospital now for at least one month and then will continue treatments at home with many trips to or stays at Sick Kids in Toronto. This fundraiser will help with their expenses while they stay in the hospital with Isaiah.
