#FTEC2020 TO BE CONTINUED IN 2021
Fight To End Cancer Web-Conference Record 30Apr2020
#FTEC2020 will be continued in 2021, however we will continue to raise hope and awareness with our team!
The FTEC Family came together on Apr. 30, 2020, and used this meeting as an opportunity to update everyone on our status and next steps.
Thank you for your support and dedication ❤️
Currently, the situation is still day by day and we’re unable to project when we can even open the doors to Kingsway Boxing Club to get the fighters back into training. What we do know, is that we will continue to Fight To End Cancer and that Defeat Is NOT An Option! Our fight and the support we provide to The Princess Margaret is even more important during these times. We are extremely honoured to fight alongside the team of doctors and researchers as we Fight Cancer and Conquer COVID. (Learn more below)
SAVE THE DATE…
Our #FTEC2021 Charity Boxing Gala has been rescheduled to Saturday, June 5th, 2021
The decision to postpone the gala was heartbreaking for the fighters, but a necessary step in light of the pandemic. We’re all uncertain when business, events or even sports will return to operation. We are confident though, that by next year, we will celebrate alongside the fight team all the hard work and dedication it will have taken for us to reach our next gala.

About The Fight To End Cancer
The Fight To End Cancer (FTEC) is a year-round initiative carried out by ambassadors, sponsors and volunteers worldwide. Over $1,500,000 has been donated to date since our inaugural year in 2012. Funds raised by FTEC are donated directly to the Princess Margaret Cancer Foundation. Each year we celebrate the incredible hard work and dedication of our FTEC family with a black-tie charity boxing gala. This gala showcases ten men and women who represent our Official Fight Team. Our goal is to raise funds for cancer research year-round with the support of the local community and business owners. Let’s make a difference now in the fight to end cancer for a long and successful future for everyone. This is an event like no other and has quickly become one of the most anticipated events in Toronto. www.fighttoendcancer.com
