Rock 'n Roll 2021

You can raise money and help empower independence and ability across Canada. Funds will go towards March of Dimes Canada’s After Stroke program, which supports people impacted by stroke right in your community and across our country. Once again MODC will be holding their big fundraiser "Walk'n Roll". The campaign is underway and ends in a big all day closing celebration on Saturday August 28th.

The 2021 challenge: to cover 7,821 km, the distance of the main route of the Trans-Canada Highway.

What you do:

• Register as an individual or part of a team.

• Chose an activity – anything you like – and the distance you’ll cover doing it. (Your time investment can be converted into distance.)

• Get your family and friends to donate or to participate!

• Complete your activity.

• Join us for an online closing celebration on August 28, 2021!

You’ll achieve two goals – raising money and getting active. Together, we’ll make a difference!

If you can, please go to the MODC website for the "Walk'n Roll" on the internet at
