Every step has purpose
This September, the CPA Assist community laces up once again for the 8×8 Challenge. This year’s challenge carries a special meaning as we honour the legacy of Priti Laderoute CPA, CMA. Priti was a dedicated volunteer, both within the profession and beyond, serving as a member of the CPA Assist Committee and giving generously of her time to support others. Participating in the Challenge is a small yet powerful way to support your own well-being while honouring someone who made a meaningful difference in the lives of those around her.
Taking place September 25 to October 2, the Challenge is designed to make movement accessible and enjoyable, with the goal of walking 8 kilometres each day for 8 days (or roughly 10,000 steps). Whether you’re walking outdoors, fitting in extra steps during your workday or getting active at home, every step counts. A bonus is the potential for some great prizes!
