Some people inspire us with their words. Others inspire us with their actions.
We were deeply honoured to welcome Samm Simon and his wife Christine to our 18th Annual Wellspring Barbecue, where Samm presented Wellspring Stratford with an incredible $15,000 donation raised through hisEpic Run for Cancer.
Samm recently completed an extraordinary 251 km run from Stratford to Tobermory in honour of his wife, who is courageously facing cancer for the third time. His remarkable journey was driven by love, hope, and a commitment to supporting local cancer care. Thanks to the overwhelming generosity of our community, his campaign has raised more than $35,000, with proceeds benefiting the London Health Sciences Centre Cancer Program, Stratford General Hospital, and Wellspring Stratford.

Samm, we are truly overwhelmed and incredibly grateful that you chose Wellspring Stratford as one of the beneficiaries of your inspiring fundraiser. Your courage, determination, and compassion are a beautiful tribute to your wife and a reminder of the strength that love can give us.
It was a pleasure to meet you both, and we look forward to following whatever adventure comes next. Thank you for making a meaningful difference in the lives of those living with cancer in our community.
💚 With heartfelt gratitude from all of us at Wellspring Stratford.
