Supporting the top cancer research in Canada

We support bold, innovative cancer research across Canada that helps lead to better diagnosis, treatment options and quality of life for those facing cancer. 

New cancer cases expected to rise dramatically over the next decade

Nearly 2 in 5 people in Canada will develop cancer during their lifetime and about 1 out of 4 Canadians are expected to die from cancer. 

We’re One Step Closer to a World Without Cancer Thanks to You

Today, data predicts the five-year net survival rate for all cancers to be 64%. In the 1940s, survival was only about 25%.  

Become a Monthly Donor

By joining our group of committed monthly donors, you will provide reliable support to Canada’s best and brightest researchers while bringing us one step closer to Terry’s dream of a world without cancer.

Sign up today with a monthly donation amount that is meaningful to you.

 

In Memory or In Honour

When you give to The Terry Fox Foundation, your donation supports high-impact research through the Terry Fox Research Institute that makes the greatest difference where it matters most – in the lives of patients.

Make a donation in honour or in memory of someone special. We can send a card to the honoree to celebrate your gift.

Estate & Legacy Gifts

A gift in your Will is a powerful statement about what matters to you and your family and how you want to be remembered.

Creating a gift in your will has significant tax benefits and will drive improvements in cancer research for years to come. Please review the following resources and sample wording and get in touch to discuss how The Terry Fox Foundation can be part of your legacy.

Corporate & Workplace Giving

Before embarking on his Marathon of Hope, Terry wrote a letter to Canadian corporations asking for their support. Today, the corporate sector has a more important role than ever in transforming cancer research in Canada. The Terry Fox Foundation is proud to work with elite corporate citizens who uphold Terry’s values and dream.

Individual & Family Giving

Join us in this game-changing initiative to help make precision medicine a reality for cancer patients and their families. We still have much more to do — and it is only through philanthropic leadership that we can bridge the gap between breakthrough science and enabling better treatment options and results for those facing cancer.

Donate Securities

Donating securities (stocks, mutual funds, flow-through shares, etc.) allows you to eliminate the capital gains tax you’d be obligated to pay if you sold them and donated the proceeds.

Making a gift of securities is simple and impactful. Speak with your financial advisor today and download our Gift of Securities Form now.

Your Impact

Your generosity is making a life-changing difference in the lives of cancer patients and their families across Canada and beyond.

I'm not a dreamer, and I'm not saying this will initiate any kind of definitive answer or cure to cancer, but I believe in miracles. I have to.
