Dance for a Cause. Celebrate a Milestone. Support Young Adults with Cancer.
This year marks a huge milestone for Katie. She is celebrating 10 years cancer-free!! 🎉
To honour this moment and give back, Katie is hosting a 10 hour Dance-a-thon in support of Young Adults Cancer Canada (YACC).
During her cancer journey, Katie attended a YACC retreat during the winter. She shared and listened to stories, made friends, reflected and created connections. Some of the friends she made there have since passed on and she misses them dearly. Katie is grateful to YACC for “supporting young adults living with, through, and beyond cancer.”

Katie’s goal is to raise $10,000 between January and May 2026, with all funds going directly to YACC.
✨ Join Katie for a joyful, sober, all-ages dance celebration filled with movement, music and community. ✨
