Ryan Reynolds Is Supporting A Legendary Canadian & The Proceeds Go To An Important Cause​

"I’ve been doing this run since I was a little kid." 🇨🇦

Senior Writer

Ryan Reynolds is once again lending a hand to a Canadian initiative that's near and dear to the hearts of many.

On Wednesday, March 6, the Vancouver-born celeb shared the news on his Instagram page.


"This year’s limited edition #TerryFoxRun shirts are now available," he wrote. "All proceeds benefit cancer research. I’ve been doing this run since I was a little kid. The @terryfoxfoundation has helped countless people — standing on the shoulders of the great, Terry Fox."

The front of the shirt features an image of Fox himself with the words "No matter what," while the back has a longer message: "No matter the distance. No matter the obstacles. No matter the journey. No matter the odds. No matter what."

The merch is currently available to buy on the Terry Fox Foundation's website and comes in English and French options.

This is Reynolds' second year supporting the foundation and their cause.

"I’ve been taking part in the Terry Fox Run since second grade and can’t think of a more enduring and lovely legacy for one person," he wrote on his Instagram last year, modelling the merch available for purchase. Terry Fox inspired millions in life and death."

Given that last year's shirt received overwhelming demand given Reynolds' involvement, you might want to get your hands on this years offering sooner rather than later.

This year's Terry Fox run takes place on September 15, 2024.
