This year, ERES will once again be participating in the Terry Fox Walk on Friday, October 4th. We have decided to have a fun competition between the three fields to raise funds for cancer research. Each field is challenged to raise as much money as possible for this important cause. Your involvement can make a big difference! Detailed information regarding the competition is outlined below and the link to donate online is below. Thank you for helping make this fundraiser a success!
