A . - - BY SUSAN O'NEILL ■ '• - Staff Writer You can't train the brain if you don't include the food. That's the motto of Durham's 'Child Nutrition Project', which is providing thousands of children across the region with access to a healthy breakfast every day. And, if Durham Region supports the group's request for continued funding next month, hundreds of other pupils will be starting the school day with a full stomach. The Region's health and social services services committee approved $132,000 in funding for the organization Thursday. Durham contributed $110,000 last year. If that funding is approved for 2001 by council Oct. 4, organizers will not only be able to continue supporting the 36 breakfast club and snack programs that are currently running across the region, region, but they'll be able to start 10 new programs at elementary schools here, says co-ordinator Carla Rliody. Noting the goal of the project is to ensure no child goes to school hungry in Durham Region, Ms. Rhody said the cost of the program, which got under way a year ago, works out to about 30 cents per day, per child "We^fè serving 4|0b0 children'now" daily," she said. She reports there are now 31 schools and five community groups involved in the project, which wouldn't be possible without the help of the countless volunteers volunteers who serve breakfast to children and the many community organizations and churches which help fund the initiative. initiative. "We're just thrilled to get the support of the Region," Ms. Rhody said of the committee's decision. "It shows leadership leadership and concern for children." Pickering Councillor Maurice Brenner, Brenner, who also serves as the children's advocate for the Region, reports Durham has contributed more than $1.1 million to programs for children in the past year. "It reaches an awful lot of kids," he said of the nutrition project, adding "it's universal... there's no stigma attached to it." And, the program is making a difference difference to students as they are better able to concentrate in class, Ms. Rliody says; "We know the children are doing better in school, principals and teachers see the difference," she said. "This project project has taken off, it's been so wonderful wonderful to see." SAFI, EASY AND SO EFFECTIVE! Brt Egg aggSgll , E rW.Æ N.

BOWMANVILLE MALL Breast cancer research gets Durham boost A perfect fall day brought out so many generous participants participants to Durham Region's first Run for the Cure on Sunday Sunday that records were broken. "We were considered a satellite site," says Carole Keys, co-chairman for the local committee and a survivor survivor of breast cancer. "But we raised in excess of $125,000 and received an e- mail from (CISC's Run for the Cure) national headquarters headquarters telling us we have set new records. We had been told because we were a satellite, satellite, we would be lucky to raise $25,000." The CIBC Run for the cure is the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation's largest single national fund-raising event for the disease. Organized Organized entirely by volunteers, this year's run attracted more than 97,000 participants across Canada and raised $8.5 million, up by $1.8 million million raised in 1999. The run has also become known as the 'kick-off event' to mark .the start of Breast Cancer Awareness Month in October since it began in Toronto nine year's ago. Local sponsors of the run not only included branches of the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce but several businesses throughout Durham Region. "It was a dream come true for us," says Bonnie Fraser, who shared co-chairman duties duties for the Durham site. "I spoke with national (event organizers) organizers) and they were just blown away. We made history." history." Mrs. Keys and Mrs. Fraser Fraser estimate more than 1,300 runners took part in the Oct. 1 run at Durham College. Seventy-five per cent of the money raised in each province or region goes to support breast cancer research research studies and projects in that area. "I wanted it (tire run) in Durham Region because because of the cancer centre so that some of the money we raised can come back to this region," says Mrs. Keys. "As a survivor, I just hope some of the money we raised will go to help find a cure." "A lot of hard work and determination went into the run," adds Mrs. Fraser. "Everyone who headed a committee was a perfectionist ... and I thank tire residents of Durham Region so much for their support." One of the most poignant parts of the run was tire 'wall of hope,' a large message board mounted on an exterior part of the college where runners wrote the names of and messages to the women in their lives they were running for. Many, unfortunately, unfortunately, were posthumous. posthumous. Breast cancer is the single biggest killer of Canadian women between the ages of 35 and 55. One in nine Canadian Canadian women can expect to develop develop breast cancer during her lifetime and one in 25 will die from this disease. Breast cancer can also strike men. Three per cent of all breast cancer occurs in males. Don't Miss the Action!
