"Join Third Annual Charity Run in Abbotsford, BC to support Fraser Valley Health Care Foundation"
Mercy 4 Mankind, a subsidiary of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Youth Association (AMYA), is honored to host a charity event to raise funds for the dedicated staff and courageous patients at Fraser valley health care foundation. We are deeply moved by the selfless work of the doctors, nurses, and support staff who provide comfort and healing to those suffering from illness and injury.
Our charity run/walk event allows us to embrace the Abbotsford community and provide support and encouragement to the Fraser Health.
We are thrilled to bring people from all backgrounds and abilities to participate in our inaugural "Run for Abbotsford" for this worthy cause. Whether you are a competitive runner, a casual walker, or someone who simply wants to offer your presence in support, you are welcome here with open arms. Veterans, families, children and seniors - come one, come all!
Let us unite and take each step forward with empathy and compassion for our neighbours. The festive community atmosphere will remind us of our shared humanity.
We sincerely hope this charity run/walk event provides the Fraser valley health care foundation, its care providers, and its patients with the necessary resources. Let's join hands in solidarity!

Abbotsford Trail Running Club was born in 2016 when a group of Fraser Valley trail enthusiasts recognized a gap in their community, founding what would become the region's premier trail running collective. Based in Abbotsford, British Columbia, ATRC brings together runners of all levels, from curious beginners to seasoned regulars, united by a shared love of the lush forests and mountain-backed terrain surrounding them. The crew's philosophy centers on promoting fitness and community through accessible trail running while advocating fiercely for the local nature trails that make their mission possible. Welcoming newcomers through dedicated beginner runs and hosting women-only nights, ATRC ensures no one tackles the trails alone. Monday and Thursday anchor the weekly schedule, with special Tuesday and Wednesday outings adding variety and adventure to every runner's calendar.
