(* in most communities)

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.
