The Wounded Warrior Run made its way into Victoria yesterday, capping an 800 km journey from Port Hardy in eight days.

The team is raising awareness and funds for veterans and first responders experiencing post-traumatic stress disorder and operational stress injuries.

They’ve raised more than $180 thousand for the charity - and fundraising continues all month long toward their goal of $250 thousand.

You can make a donation at Wounded Warriors BC.

Wounded Warriors Canada provides a range of clinically facilitated programs that have been developed to support the unique needs of Veterans,

First Responders, and their families.

The programs support individuals, couples, spouses, surviving family members and children of those who serve or have served our country and communities.
