Go Jill Go

Diagnosed at age 4 with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia, she fought the disease again at age 10 and age 15, kicking it to the curb. Unfortunately, the disease reoccurred at age 19, just shy of her 20th birthday, and this time Jill was not so lucky.

Jill lived spontaneously. She never let a day go by where she didn’t live life to the fullest.

And that’s why you’re here. To carry on Jill’s zest for life and raise money to fight cancer while doing so.
“I can laugh at anything and I’m always smiling.”

What is The Go Jill Go Challenge?

www.gojillgochallenge.com

Jill’s dream was to ensure kids like her, those who are affected with sickness, do not feel like they are sick, but instead, enjoy life and live it the fullest.

Taking Jill’s inspirational way of living every moment, we have challenged BCIT students to live their dreams! Participants will choose a drea they want to live, or live out one of Jill’s unrealized dreams, and raise pledges in support of this dream. Each individual will set a goal amount of raised funs and when they reach their goal, they will participate in The Go Jill Go Dream Week in February 2011.

All donations will go towards making dreams come true for more teens like Jill through BC Children’s Hospital. Funds will not be used by the individuals to pay for their dream.
