On
Sunday, May 3rd, 2009, more than 2,000 people
in five provinces and in 14 communities across Canada
walked to raise awareness about the importance of injury
prevention in the workplace and to raise funds for family
support programs and services to help victims of workplace
fatalities, life-altering injuries and occupational
disease. The walk raised more than $158,000 in cash.

Adopt-a-Walker Program
returns to honour family members killed on the job for the
2010 walk
in 2007 Steps for Life offered its first Adopt-a-Walker option for families who are unable to
participate in the walk personally but wanted to support
Threads of Life and have someone walk in memory of their
loved one. Both the walkers and the families solicited
donations. This year we are matching more walkers with
families of workplace tragedy. For more information on how
you can sponsor one of these walkers click here.
