Myeloma Challenge 2024

YOU can make the difference – make Myeloma Matter!

Every day 11 Canadians are diagnosed with Myeloma. Although the disease is incurable, patients are living better and longer thanks to the development of new treatments. To cure Myeloma, however, more investment and research is needed. That’s where we need YOUR help. How? Join the SAMPS PERSONAL CHALLENGE 2024.

It's that time again!

Dust off those bikes, shine up those running shoes, polish those knitting needles! Join the SAMPS Personal Challenge 2024 in support of Myeloma Research in Alberta. The SAMPS annual Personal Challenge continues this year, and we need your help to reach our goal of $45,000.

When you register for SAMPS Personal Challenge 2024, you are joining a community that understands the impact we have when we raise one more dollar, share one more story and go one step further. And not just on one day.

Rally together, connect, cheer on your community during the Personal Challenge 2024 week for an awe-inspiring week of actions that raise critical funds for our loved ones affected by myeloma and in memory of those we have lost. Help us take one step closer to finding a cure. Together we will make myeloma matter.

How? It’s as easy as 1-2-3

  1. Choose your challenge – you can walk, run, cycle, paint your house or paint a canvas, knit a blanket or binge on a TV series!  Walk the midway at Stampede! Help a person in need – the list is endless – we can all make a difference in our own unique way. Sure, we call it the Walk/Run, but it’s all about fun. So, choose your activity and make the challenge!  

  2. Get your friends involved – start a team or join a team. Use your social media to get your friends involved from across the world wide web. Give them the Personal Challenge 2024 link and have them sign up on your team or donate to support your challenge. And lead the charge – make your donation – start a donation challenge!  Get the money-ball rolling!

  3. On your mark, get set, GO! Walk your walk, ride your bike, whatever your challenge - go for it! And don’t forget photos!  We want to see all that fun in action! Share it with your team and us at SAMPS. Every step, stroke or stitch gets us closer to the finish line. 

There you have it – easy as 1-2-3.

If you cannot physically participate in the challenge, then please help us by making a donation. Reach out to family and friends who would like to support both you and the cause and help bring us closer to a cure for myeloma.

While you're making myeloma matter - take some photos to share on our social media! #SAMPSCHALLENGE2024
