Stories From
Our Fighters
Every fighter has been affected by cancer. Here are their stories.
Over the years, our family has had several close calls with cancer, which they were fortunate enough to beat with the help of cutting-edge treatments. I’ve seen first-hand how new developments and technologies can help individuals and families conquer cancer.
Scott Selland
As many of you know, my dad died of brain cancer when I was 26 years old. From his diagnosis to his death, there was a span of six months, and it was not easy to watch cancer take a ravaging toll on my father. This is one of the reasons why I have decided to take part in the Fight to End Cancer and attempt to raise $20,000 for the Princess Margaret Cancer Foundation.
Jeff Skrypek
We have all been touched by cancer in some way. I am fighting for the friends I have seen battle cancer. I am fighting for the family members myself and others have had to say goodbye to. I am fighting with the hope of achieving a common goal I believe we all share – to conquer cancer in our lifetime!
Victoria Williamson
To any warrior out there fighting; there will never be enough words to describe your admired and inspiring strength. It’s the type of strength that deserves an endless amount of recognition, respect, and support. I am here to fight for your fight, and remind you that you are not alone in this.
Melanie Muto
Julia Siegal
I’m sincerely humbled and honoured to be a part of the Fight To End Cancer team. I first learned about the FTEC a few years ago. Immediately, the words challenge, sacrifice, commitment, and strength came to mind. I knew I wanted to be a part of it.
Alissa Winicki
My grandmother, Roz, was one of the toughest women around. She grew up the oldest of three sisters, her family having next to nothing. No matter what life threw at her, there was always a fire burning inside her. A passion, energy, that could never be dimmed.
Joshua Siegal
For me, life hit our family hard on January 24, 2018, when my father Simon, lost his battle with cancer. And I still remember that day like it was yesterday.
Joey Woo
This disease has haunted people I care about. Cancer has attacked my family and friends for too long. This time I’m turning the fight back to Cancer.
Mark Maristela
After four years of being part of the Kingsway Boxing family and producing the documentary “Ascension” on the incredible story of Kingsway Boxing Club and Fight to End Cancer, I decided to put my feet in the ring to be a part of this remarkable event.
