Join the TCS Toronto Waterfront Marathon and Fundraise for CBCN

Are you ready to lace up your running shoes for a great cause? On October 18 and 19, 2025, thousands of participants will hit the streets for the TCS Toronto Waterfront Marathon, and this year, you can make every step count by fundraising for the Canadian Breast Cancer Network (CBCN)!

As an official charity partner, CBCN is inviting runners, walkers, and supporters of all fitness levels to join our team in this iconic race weekend. Whether you choose the Marathon, Half Marathon, or 5K, your participation can help improve the lives of Canadians affected by breast cancer.

Why fundraise for CBCN?
CBCN is Canada’s only national patient-directed organization dedicated to the voice of people affected by breast cancer. By fundraising through the TCS Charity Challenge, you’ll help us:

  • Provide trusted, easy-to-understand information to patients navigating their diagnosis and treatment
  • Advocate for equitable access to care and support services across the country
  • Empower individuals living with breast cancer to make informed decisions about their health

Every step helps
No matter your distance or fundraising goal, your efforts will help CBCN continue its mission of educating and advocating for Canadians facing breast cancer. And with your help, we can reach even more people in need of timely, reliable, and compassionate resources.
