Asthma Canada is honoured to support and attend th Asthma Canada is honoured to support and attend the 8th Annual Rudhro Prince Memorial Walk. At just 8 years old, Rudhro Prince from Ottawa tragically lost his life to an asthma attack. Rudhro’s story is a heartbreaking reminder of just how serious asthma can be. We want to say a huge thank you to the Prince family for the work they continue to do through the Rudhro Prince Hope Foundation. What they have built in Rudhro’s memory is making a real difference in raising awareness of asthma and supporting families living with asthma across Canada. We’re grateful to be able to stand alongside the Prince family and the asthma community once again to remember Rudhro and honour his life. For Rudhro 💙 Event Details: 📍 Andrew Haydon Park, Ottawa 📅 Sunday, September 27, 2026 🚶 1 km or 5 km walk Learn more and register: link in bio.

Asthma Canada’s free Back to School with Asthma Digital Pack has practical resources to help parents, teachers and children navigate the school year with asthma. The pack includes a parent checklist, teacher guide, Kids’ Asthma Diary, Asthma Attack Poster and a Back to School with Asthma webinar covering everything from asthma symptoms and triggers to communicating with schools.
