She lives in Sudbury and is in her 4th year in the Health Promotion program. Besides her course load she also works in the President's office as an intern doing everything from copying to communications, social media and budget reports.
Veronique competed in the 2012 Continental Insulation 10km Walk/Run. She did very well completing the course in 51:32 and placing 8th in her age group.
Veronique is looking forward to the 2013 10km which she plans to run again.
Congratulations Veronique
Thank you SudburyRocks!!!
I hereby would like to thank you for your charitable contribution. I certainly can use the assistance! It is through such works that I realize how to live, and that I can count on my community to give a boost to help me build a successful future.
This money will help pay for the rest of my undergraduate training. Also, be assured that I will continue to support my academic endeavours and of course, to promote health and combat diabetes.
Again, thank you!
Please accept my best regards.
