Welcome to my fundraising page! 

The World Partnership Walk 2026 campaign is officially underway! Once again, I am stepping forward for a more peaceful, prosperous and equal world for all.

Every spring, thousands of Canadians from coast to coast lace up their sneakers to participate in the World Partnership Walk, Canada’s largest public movement dedicated to fighting global poverty. 

I will be participating with the Bruce Trail Hikers team. We will be trekking 25km over 2 days on May 29th and 30th, 2026 before joining the World Partnership Walk in Toronto.

An initiative of the Aga Khan Foundation Canada (AKFC), the World Partnership Walk is Canada’s largest movement dedicated to raising funds and increasing awareness to fight global poverty.

Money raised will support AKFC programs in Africa and Asia to enable families and communities to lift themselves out of poverty through access to quality education, life-saving health services, food security and improved livelihoods.

With over 700 million people living on less than $2.15 a day, I’m raising funds that empower vulnerable communities and individuals break the cycle of poverty. Donating to my fundraise campaign will support transformative programs that improve access to quality education, essential health services, food security, and sustainable livelihoods worldwide. 

100% of all funds raised through the World Partnership Walk go directly to AKFC’s international development projects, translating to huge impact on the ground.

The Bruce Trail Hikers team has been hiking on the Bruce Trail to support the World Partnership Walk annually since 2016. To date, we have raised over $400,000. This is my first year participating in this hike.

I would greatly appreciate your support. Every contribution matters and every dollar raised will help make a difference.
