Leah March, a Grade 6 student from St. Anne Catholic School in Sarnia, was named Terry Fox School Run Ambassador for 2025.  Leah is a cancer survivor, who at age six was diagnosed with osteosarcoma, the same type of cancer that Terry Fox had.  As ambassador, Leah’s photo and survivor story were displayed in 10,000 schools across Canada.

Her story was featured in a CBC Kids article and on Breakfast TV.

Last week, directors for the school run division of the Terry Fox Foundation visited St. Anne to recognize Leah and her tremendous efforts in raising more than $10,000 for the Terry Fox Foundation.  St. Anne is one of the top fundraising schools in Ontario, reaching more than $200,000 in 30 years.

The school was also presented with a 30-year banner for its lengthy record of participation.
