Landmark East School is celebrating its 20 th Annual Walkathon on Sunday, October 16, 2022. Each year this event

raises over $30,000 for the Student Bursary Fund, as well as awareness around what our school offers. This year we are extending our reach to inspire / include / recognize a variety of ways of participating – walk, run, bike, skip or wheel! Come be a part of the magic!

Our school has played a vital role in changing the lives of children with learning differences for over 40 years and our

Bursary Program provides funding for students who might not otherwise be able to get the education that they need and deserve. Each year approximately half of our students receive a bursary and we need to raise approximately $300,000 annually to make that happen. Our annual Walkathon is an important ingredient to our success.

HERE’S HOW YOU CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE:

• Ask friends, family members and people in your workplace to be sponsors
• Reach out to your neighbours by placing a small poster on doors or in mailboxes
