RECORD-SETTING GENEROSITY MAKES NEW TREATMENTS FOR BREAST CANCER IN SASKATCHEWAN POSSIBLE
The 25th annual C95 Radio Marathon for Breast Cancer Research raised a record-setting $516,321 for Cancer Foundation of Saskatchewan during today’s 12-hour live broadcast.
Tara Wiberg was diagnosed in January 2024 at the age 32. She started chemotherapy, followed by a double mastectomy shortly afterwards, and is currently in active treatment. She shared her story during today’s broadcast and emphasized the importance of research.
“If it wasn’t for research, I wouldn’t be on immunotherapy – and that’s what’s going to keep me alive long enough to see my kids grow up,” Tara stated. “Hopefully my daughter doesn’t ever go through this, and I hope that research can find a cure.”
The community’s donations help brave individuals like Tara live longer, healthier lives with their families, and will be used by Cancer Foundation of Saskatchewan to support breast cancer research – helping Saskatchewan researchers find new treatments for those affected by breast cancer every year.
“Thank you to C95 and the incredible donors who made this year’s radio marathon such an amazing success,” said Nora Yeates, CEO of the Cancer Foundation of Saskatchewan. “All the money raised will stay right here at home, to help advance breast cancer research for women in our province.”
Since it began, C95 Radio Marathon for Breast Cancer Research has raised more than $6.9 million for breast cancer research with one hundred percent of proceeds staying in Saskatchewan.
The Cancer Foundation of Saskatchewan is the fundraising partner of the Saskatchewan Cancer Agency. Every dollar raised by the Foundation stays in the province supporting patient treatment and care, research, plus early detection and prevention programs.
