'CBCF - Run for the
Cure 2005
 Team NYGÅRD Spirit'
The Run
2005 was the MOST SUCCESSFUL Run in its 14 year history. Over 170,000
participants walked/ran in 40+ sites across Canada, and as of SUN2 OCT05, $21M+ was raised to help create a future WITHOUT breast cancer!!
Peter Nygård
& NYGÅRD Int'l have been supporting the fight against breast cancer
for well over a decade now & it is absolutely our corporate 'Charity of
Choice.'
2005 is NYGÅRD's
5th year as a 'NATIONAL CHAMPION' Level sponsor & to date NYGÅRD
has provided over 700,000 T-shirts to all of the CIBC Run for the Cure
participants across Canada!

|
3 years ago, in addition to the regular run T-shirts, NYGÅRD wanted
to do something special for BREAST CANCER SURVIVORS: A pink SURVIVOR
T-shirt.

The 'sea of pink' that was seen on SUN OCT2 - stirred mixed
emotions, one felt a tinge of sadness because of what this colour has
come to represent: lives lost & lives changed because of breast
cancer. But, we can also feel Joy & anticipation because every pink
T-shirt at the run represents Victory & HOPE for the
future.
