Sure, Janovary started as a fun gag amongst friends.
Yes, we're planning a super-fun party and getting a rush out of raising money for charity.
But it all gets put into perspective when a lovely 24 year old woman gets in touch to let us know how wonderful she thinks Janovary is, and that she is battling ovarian cancer and currently undergoing treatment.
It's so touching and humbling to realize that this little event that we're trying to grow actually impacts people's lives. And really, any one of us in the female population could be that woman one day.
So let's take a moment to put things into perspective. To really value the precious moments in our lives and our precious health. And let's raise some money, have some fun, and contribute what we can to making women's cancers (and all cancers) history!
Pretty pretty please head over to our official Janovary site to donate. Any small amount helps! And make yourself available for a super-fun fundraising bash in downtown Toronto on Wednesday, February 1st 2012.
