We are deeply grateful for the support of our community, donors and volunteers over the past 32 years. Your generosity of over $800k has made a real difference for CHEO.
 
Unfortunately, due to ongoing challenges with funding and participation, the CHEO BBQ is unable to continue as we know it. Despite our best efforts, sustaining operations has become impossible. This was a difficult decision and after exploring all the options, we believe this is the best course of action. 
While this chapter is closing, the door is not fully shut- however continuing in another form would require further discussion. As we wind down, we are ensuring that any remaining resources go to CHEO and encourage continued support for their vital work.

As a part of the CHEO BBQ the Volleyball Tournaments, Virtual and Live 5k Run/Walk events promoted health and wellness while raising funds for the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario. Funds raised contributed to the advancement of health and research facilities for our community’s children, with the added bonus of having fun outdoors!
