Emily's "Eppic" Swim
17-year-old Canuck Place sibling Emily Epp became the youngest British Columbian to swim the English Channel this July, when she completed the feat in 11 hours and 57 minutes. She used her amazing accomplishment to raise funds for Canuck Place Children's Hospice, in honour of her sister Elan, who has received Canuck Place care since she was 18 months old. The Kids Helping Kids Foundation and Nicola Wealth Management matched over $50,000 in donations bringing her total to over $100,000 (and counting!)
