The decision to fight for such a meaningful cause is life-changing…

You are a true hero whether you embark on this journey for yourself, a family member or a friend who is fighting, or has had to fight cancer. To better understand the challenges and commitments ahead, please watch the video above and read through the material provided below and be sure to read our News and Media.
The year-long fundraising efforts of the Fight To End Cancer are celebrated each year in an event like no other. Featuring a new group of businessmen and women, with no prior boxing experience, Fight To End Cancer’s annual black-tie gala concludes months of their intense training, in an Olympic-style sanctioned boxing event. Fight To End Cancer has quickly grown to become a premium fundraiser and showcases these brave individuals, as they lace up their gloves and step into our ring to help knock out cancer.

How Will I Fight To End Cancer?

You are not in this alone! The Kingsway Boxing and Fight To End Cancer teams will guide you though and prepare you entirely for the road ahead.  Your role as a fighter in the Fight To End Cancer is extensive. To say the least, this is a yearlong endeavour, the fight being the climax of all the hard work, dedication and the funds you raise to support cancer research.
As a fight team member, you will be an inspiration to those who are affected by the disease. Your fight is all too familiar to children and adults who have had to fight their own battles. Your fight will prove to those who are fighting, have fought, or have been impacted by cancer, that they are not alone!
