We are thrilled to share exciting news: the Cardinal Family Matching Gift Challenge continues this year! Every donation made in support of our Annual Cardinal Walkathon for Seniors will be doubled by Cardinal Funeral Home, up to $20,000. This makes our walkathon an incredible opportunity for everyone who believes in the importance of caring for our community’s seniors to make an even greater impact.
“We love supporting the Walkathon. It shows what an incredible community the Ukrainian Canadian Care Centre has. It inspires us to be part of this vibrant and thriving community of supporters and to help amplify the impact of each donation. Together, each one of us can make a bigger difference in the lives of seniors,” says Jimmy Cardinal, owner of Cardinal Funeral Homes, on behalf of the Cardinal Family.
Every year, staff, current and past family members, Board members, community supporters, donors, and volunteers come together to walk, raise funds, and make donations to our cause. Over the years, our Annual Cardinal Walkathon has grown into our largest community engagement and fundraising initiative! It has truly become a celebration of our community’s strength, shared values, and commitment to providing the care and services our elderly seniors so rightfully deserve.
We’re delighted to offer you three ways of becoming a part of this amazing initiative:
- Sign up to walk and raise funds for the care, programs and services we offer our community’s seniors.
- Encourage family members and friends to join the walk and raise funds for our cause
- Make a donation in support of one or more Walkathon participants.

We’re introducing exciting new additions for all participants and donors. Every participant and donor will enjoy special health and wellness sessions from Breathe Yoga Studio, including tips on stretching and walking, and DK Wellness will offer advice on nutrition and physical activity.Let’s come together again this year to walk, celebrate, and make a positive impact for our seniors. Sign up today and help us take another step toward improving the lives of those who have given so much to our community!
