Charity Challenge Supporting Childhood Brain Cancer Research
The TCS Toronto Waterfront Marathon Charity Challenge is one of Canada’s largest running events, bringing together thousands of participants to support meaningful causes.
By fundraising for Tali’s Fund, you are helping to advance childhood brain cancer research while providing vital programs and resources for families during and after treatment.
- In-Person Race Weekend:
- Oct 17 (Saturday): 5K
- Oct 18 (Sunday): half and full marathon
- Virtual Participation: Take part from anywhere in the world, from Oct 1 to Oct 30, 2026.
Why Fundraise for Tali’s Fund?
Brain tumours are the leading cause of cancer-related deaths in children, yet research and family support remain critically underfunded.
Funds raised through this charity challenge help Tali’s Fund:
- Support childhood brain cancer research
- Provide meaningful resources and programs for families
- Honour Tali’s legacy by turning compassion into action
Every dollar raised helps ease the journey for families when they need it most.
