St. Brother Andre supports the …
St. Brother Andre’s B – Strong Walk
*This year, St. Brother Andre will be supporting the foundation by having a walk on:
FRIDAY, APRIL, 24th, 2015!
The B-Strong Walk & Lindsay’s Story*The B-Strong Walk was founded by
Lindsay Bolger, a BA grad, and her
family. The foundation was created
shortly after Lindsay was diagnosed
with a rare form of brain tumour in
April of 2005.
* Unfortunately the brain tumor continued to worsen and in 2009, Lindsay passed away. The foundation is dedicated to raising funds for brain tumour research in memory of Lindsay.
Why walk?*To show the community St. Brother Andre is committed to helping fulfill Lindsay’s mission and to keep the memory of Lindsay alive in the school she loved greatly.
“There are times in life when one is faced
with unpredictable challenges. In my case,
it was a brain tumour. Challenges like these
test one’s strength and courage, but most
of all they test how one accepts and deals
with these. The only way to deal with these
is in a positive way. This experience has
totally made me realize that with the right
attitude and support, you can truly find a
positive view for anything.”
~ Lindsay Bolger, 2005
