Pride Run Celebrates 30 Years of Hope
Description
Thirty years of love, loss, and legacy: Toronto’s Pride and Remembrance Run shattered fundraising records this year, raising over $412,000 to support vital LGBTQ+ charities, while honoring friends lost to AIDS and diabetes. From 320 runners and $8,000 in its first year to a vibrant, multi-generational celebration today, the event embodies resilience, joy, and community — with elders like Bernie Thompson finding healing and identity, and families like Lisa Sweetman’s running together. Mayor Olivia Chow joined the crowd, underscoring the run’s role in remembering the past, supporting the present, and celebrating Pride’s enduring spirit.
