Please Join Us for the 15th Anniversary of Seja’s Run

Twenty years ago, a vibrant, well-loved TFS student, named Seja von Wersebe, died at the age of 16 from asthma-related causes.

In 1996, her classmates, on the occasion of their five-year reunion at TFS, decided to do something to honour her memory. What better way than by creating a run in her name, whose funds would be used to battle the condition that took her life?

In 2010, Seja’s Run will turn 15 years old. Over the years, current parents and students, along with staff and alumni, have participated in the Run to honour Seja’s memory. This year, as in the past, the Run will be part of TFS’ annual Alumni Reunion Weekend, and will take place on Saturday, May 8th. More than ever, asthma has become a concern for us all. In fact, it is the number one reason for emergency room visits by children in Ontario.

On Mother’s Day in 1996, the Toronto Star reported on the very moving first Seja’s Run at TFS. To view that article please click here.
