The Purpose:

Ann is running in support of The Hope Foundation, the purpose of this cross Canada venture, is to:

1. Raise funds for this not for profit organization (charities) in order for them to continue to make real their Mission… in service to others.

2. To raise the awarenesss of Canadians that they have a CHOICE in EVERY moment… to `help' make this `world' a `better place', or not.

This `run' is truly a sincere effort, in itself, to `help make this world a better, place'. Every step, no matter how hard, is meant with Love, to help.
When Canadians see this runner (and her black labrador) running, they may ask, " Why is she doing this?"

The answer… For each human being, to pause… reflect… and CHOOSE, in every moment, the choice which makes this world a better place. To… each Canadian… EACH PERSON… to OWN the responsibility of creating a better moment… a `better' world.

To `harness' The POWER of People, as individuals, and as one.

Each step on this `run' then, will be a warm thought… an `embrace' for each Canadian as they create, individually, as communities, and as a nation… a `better' place. This could be lending a hand, choosing not to deride or diminish another, giving the `gift' of a smile, helping a community organization, teaching the young, aiding those in need, giving a `hug' etc, etc… CREATING, through conscious, directed POWER, a `better place'.
