WICC shows support for long-running fundraising event

This year’s Relay For Life marked WICC’s 14-year anniversary as a partner of the event. The organization helped raise more than $200,000 for the relay, and WICC members also directly participated in Relay For Life Toronto, taking turns with other community participants in making their way around Garrison Park.

“After a challenging couple of years, I’m excited to finally be able to safely gather in-person once again. It is inspiring to see WICC and the insurance community come together and show our support for CCS and Relay For Life,” said Shari Dodsworth, WICC Relay For Life co-chair and SVP of sales & distribution, Ontario, Atlantic, and Western Region at Northbridge.

“I am in awe of the dedication, support and funds raised by WICC and our industry partners,” Dodsworth added. “Thank you to everyone who participated!”

Although the Relay For Life event has ended, the public is still invited to show their support for the cause. WICC has stated that CCS will continue to accept Relay For Life donations until August 31.
