24 Hours of Heroes
24 hours of Heroes CrossFit Challenge in partnership with Wounded Warriors Canada.
This event takes place on November 16, 2019@10:00am through to November 17, 2019 10:00am. The 24 hours of Heroes event started in 2016 with 24 “hero” workouts- CrossFit style workouts that are written and performed to honour fallen service men and women to raise some money for Wounded Warriors Canada- a charity that aids Veterans and First Responders suffering from PTSD. They are typically long and grueling workouts, meant to make you really uncomfortable, but also to remind you of their ultimate sacrifice for our freedom and safety.
Thank you so much for raising funds and awareness through this event.

The NSD Paws Program
NSD’s Paws Program is a fundraising program designed to raise awareness of autism, PTSD and Certified Service Dogs. Paper paws are sold as a point of purchase sale within retail outlets and posted with the donor’s name. The program can be run for any length of time and is often very successful in April as it is National Autism Awareness Month or in August during International Assistance Dogs Week; however, the program can be run at any time throughout the year.
