For the past decade, dedicated staff, and student volunteers at the University of Waterloo have delivered UW WELL-FIT: a unique exercise program for individuals in Waterloo Region who are undergoing chemotherapy, radiation, or hormonal therapy treatment for various cancers.
Part of a comprehensive cancer recovery strategy, UW WELL-FIT helps participants reduce the severity of side effects associated with treatment. The 12-week program provides an opportunity for individuals with cancer to participate in supervised exercise in a safe, private, and supportive small group environment.
A diagnosis of cancer can be devastating to both the individual and their family. During the most challenging of times, this innovative program developed in Waterloo Region offers those living with cancer the chance to regain a feeling of wellness and control over their lives.
UW WELL-FIT is experiencing a growing wait list of participants.
To help meet demand and expand services, please visit your favourite Charcoal Group restaurant and try one of their delicious creations from the UW WELL-FIT Feature Menu.

To donate directly to the program, contact Kate McCrae or complete Waterloo's secure online donation form (designate your gift as "Other - UW WELL-FIT").
