Société de recherche sur le cancer

**Read for the Cure** is a remarkable initiative founded in 2006 by a passionate group of book club members, motivated by their personal experiences with cancer. Recognizing the need to make a difference, they harnessed their love for literature to support cancer research. This unique series of literary evenings is held in various Canadian cities and features bestselling authors, all organized in partnership with Penguin Random House of Canada.

The primary goal of Read for the Cure is to raise funds for research into the environmental causes of cancer, examining how living and working conditions can impact cancer risk. By integrating community involvement and the joy of reading, the initiative fosters a supportive environment and encourages participation among those affected by cancer. Their diverse programming includes events such as “Chanter Noël pour la recherche” and “Cyclo-Golf,” which further engage the community. Through these efforts, Read for the Cure is not just promoting literature but also championing the fight against cancer through meaningful contributions to vital research.
