12,000 gearing up to ride for heart
Parkway, Gardiner closed for 20th ride
By KEVIN CONNOR
More than 12,000 cyclists will be out pedalling tomorrow to raise money for the Heart and Stroke Foundation of Ontario.
The riders will be cycling along the traffic-free Gardiner Expressway and up the Don Valley Parkway during the 20th annual Becel Heart and Stroke Ride for Heart, said Rocco Rossi, CEO of the heart and stroke foundation.
"Our goal for 2007 is $2.7 million and we have reached 75% of that goal to date. It looks like this will be a record-breaking ride," Rossi said.
Liver walk can save lives
Tiny organ recipient Kailey Simmons is proof how fundraising efforts have paid off
By KEVIN CONNOR, SUN MEDIA
Little Kailey Simmons is gearing up to take part in her second Stroll for Liver walk to raise money for the Canadian Liver Foundation.
Last September, Kailey, 18 months, received a life-saving liver transplant after spending most of her young life at the Hospital for Sick Children.
"We took part in the walk last year and it turned out to be the weekend before she ended up in the hospital," said Kailey's mom, Lisa Simmons.

About Me
- Unhypentated Canadian
- I lean to the right but I still have a heart and if I have a mission it is to respond to attacks on people not available to protect themselves and to point out the hypocrisy of the left at every opportunity.MY MAJOR GOAL IS HIGHLIGHT THE HYPOCRISY AND STUPIDITY OF THE LEFTISTS ON TORONTO CITY COUNCIL. Last word: In the final analysis this blog is a relief valve for my rants/raves.
