Let's Scrap Cancer

2/4/2012

Two of Chad’s cousins had a creative way of raising money in his memory. For months, Dale and Travis Warren collected scrap metal from the farm yards of their families and neighbours in southern Alberta. They spent hours retrieving any metal they could find. Then they arranged to have it all shipped and sold - the total came to over $3000.

Hollyburn Country Club
West Vancouver, B.C.
September 8-11th, 2011


Chad's friends and colleagues at the Hollyburn Tennis Centre started the Chad Warren Charity Challenge in his memory. The focus is on having a fun, friendly tournament, while raising some money and awareness of Chad's cause: the HRCTU at the VGH/UBC Hospital Foundation. In the first year, it raised just over $9,600.

Thanks to Sharon Jenvey and Tony Macken for organizing the event, everyone who donated raffle and silent auction items, everyone who bought raffle tickets and bid on silent auction items - and especially to the 126 people who came out and played!

Since my brother Chad died, I have been thinking about how to carry on what he started. Chad had a lot of goals: to get better, to be there for his friends and family, to travel, to make a difference with his life. None of us could make him well, but I can do this small thing for him. I can make sure that his life makes a difference.

Megan ran the Vancouver BMO Marathon - she hadn’t trained for it, or run farther than 24km before but she figured she could beat Oprah’s marathon time of 4 hours and 29 minutes. She challenged her friends to donate $42 if she finished the 42km in under four hours and 20 minutes.  She did it in 3 hours and 43 minutes - just three minutes shy of qualifying for the Boston marathon (her next goal.)

Chad was very sick in November 2009 when Danielle Jenvey organized this event to help him reach his goal. She held the event at a bar and grill - for a $20 ticket people received a burger and a beer, plus lots of entertainment and an auction. Many of Chad’s friends came out and they  raised over $12,000 for his cause. Chad didn’t live to attend the event, but he appreciated all that was done in his honour.

“I want to say a special thank you to everyone involved with the fundraiser that's being organized a few weeks from now at the Mosquito Creek Grill in North Vancouver. A young lady named Danielle Jenvey put this together - all I can say is her mother Sharon raised a special lady. The money raised will be going towards my campaign to raise $1 million for Multiple Myeloma research. I want to thank all our friends who continually show us support....”
