Broker Jeannette Gligic and sales rep Marlyn Katerenchuk of Coldwell Banker Best Real Estate in Oakville, Ont. recently took part in the Weekend to End Women’s Cancers benefitting the Princess Margaret Hospital. They completed the 60K walk and together raised more than $5,700. In total, the event raised $10.8 million.

“This is the first year that we have taken on such a challenge, and we came up with the slogan ‘Two Mothers Helping Others’ says Gligtic. “Both Marlyn and I unfortunately have been touched very closely by friends, family and loved ones that have been diagnosed with cancer, some are currently fighting the battle, and some have lost their battle.  However, despite our incredibly hectic lives with families and work we felt compelled to take up this challenge and take a stand against cancer, with the hope of someday soon finding a cure.”
