Hello, friends and family,
I hope you are all doing well and enjoying the beauty of the fall season. As we move into this time of year, I’m once again preparing for a cause that’s close to my heart: the fight against blood cancer.
On October 19th, I’ll be joining Light the Night at The Shipyards in North Vancouver. This year marks my 13th year participating in this event, where we walk together to celebrate survivors, honor the memories of loved ones, and offer hope to those still fighting.
For me, this is more than just a walk. It’s deeply personal. Blood cancer took someone close to me. But alongside that loss is also hope. One of my closest friends, Phillip Moy, was diagnosed with multiple myeloma 20 years ago. His journey was tough—countless treatments and a bone marrow transplant—but he fought, and today, he’s a survivor. His strength, courage, and resilience inspire me, and it’s because of stories like his that I continue this fight.
In those early days, I often felt helpless, not knowing what I could do to support Phillip. But through these walks, I’ve found a way to channel that feeling into action—to make a difference. And this year, I’m more determined than ever to raise over $2,000 for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society of Canada. Thanks to a generous matching donation from Methanex, every dollar you give will be doubled.
I know that together, we can make a real impact. Whether you’ve donated before, attended one of my fundraisers—wine tastings, beer pairings, live auctions, or our summer hockey tournament—or are just hearing about this for the first time, I want to thank you for being a part of this journey.
Your support means the world to me, and it truly changes lives. Phillip’s story is proof that we can make a difference. Please consider contributing to my fundraising efforts by visiting my Light the Night page (link below). Every dollar brings us closer to a world without blood cancer.
From the bottom of my heart, thank you for standing with me and supporting this cause.
Cheers,
Howard
