The R.O.C.K. was founded in 2004 after Samantha Thomas lost her nine month battle with Acute Lymphoblastic Lymphoma, three days before her third birthday. R.O.C.K. Founders, Bob & Lori, knew that they had to do something to put some meaning to this terrible tragedy, to find a greater purpose to their loss. Sammy’s memory lives on through the R.O.C.K. The R.O.C.K. has grown each year, from the first cheque handoff in 2004 to the Childhood Cancer Foundation Canada for $13,204 to $32,100 in 2007. Combined with the yearlong 2007 coinbox donations by McDonald’s Restaurants of Sarnia to the R.O.C.K. we will have turned over $100,000 to the Foundation before the first mile is ridden in 2008. New treatments and diagnostic tools are improving the survival rates each year, but we still have so far to go. Together, we can help, we can make a difference, we can save lives.
