Jacob Pilon hasn't added a story.

I’m proud to have been involved with UWC SDG for the past two years. This year, I had the opportunity to take on a greater role as a member of the organizing committee for Over the Edge, a bold and inspiring fundraising event that supports essential local programs. This cause means a lot to me, and it’s an honour to help make a meaningful impact in our community.

 

Je suis fier de faire partie du mouvement UWC SDG depuis maintenant deux ans. Cette année, j’ai eu la chance de m’impliquer encore davantage en siégeant sur le comité organisateur de l’événement Over the Edge, une levée de fonds audacieuse et inspirante qui soutient directement les besoins de notre communauté. Cette cause me tient à cœur, et c’est un privilège de contribuer à son succès.

Three Years. One Goal: reaching new heights for our communities.

Troisième édition. Un objectif : aller toujours plus haut pour redonner.

 

Safety first. Thrill Second. Impact Always 

Over The Edge is more than a moment — it’s a descent that builds hope.

Challenge yourself by rappelling down one of Cornwall’s tallest buildings—the St. Lawrence Seaway Management Corporation headquarters—all in support of United Way Centraide SDG.

We’re partnering with Over The Edge and St. Lawrence Seaway Management Corporation to bring urban rappelling back to Cornwall for the third year. It’s a bold way to support local programs and make a real impact in our community. Are you ready to take the first step?

La sécurité avant tout. L’adrénaline au rendez-vous. L’impact durable.

Over The Edge, c’est plus qu’un moment — c’est une descente qui fait naître l’espoir.

Relevez le défi en descendant en rappel l’un des plus hauts immeubles de Cornwall — le siège social de St. Lawrence Seaway Management Corporation — tout en soutenant Centraide United Way SDG.

Nous nous associons à Over The Edge et à la St. Lawrence Seaway Management Corporation pour ramener le rappel urbain à Cornwall pour une troisième année. C’est une façon audacieuse d’appuyer les programmes locaux et de faire une vraie différence dans notre communauté. Êtes-vous prêt à faire le premier pas?

WHEN/QUAND: September 20 septembre 2025
WHERE/OÙ:
St. Lawrence Seaway Management Corporation (202 Pitt St., Cornwall, ON)

 

How do I participate?

  1. SIGN UP NOW to become an Participant
  2. Easily set up your personal fundraising page
  3. Reach the $1000 fundraising minimum!
  4. Experience the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to rappel

If you don’t raise $1,000 by September 20, 2025, clients in our funded programs will still benefit from your hard work! All donations are final and refunds will not be issued if you do not meet the $1,000 fundraising goal required to go Over The Edge.

 

Inscription :

  1.  INSCRIVEZ-VOUS MAINTENANT  pour participer à l’événement.
  2. Créez facilement votre page personnelle de collecte de fonds.
  3. Amassez au moins 1 000 $ en dons. 
  4. Voilà la chance de votre vie de descendre en rappel!

Si vous n’amassez pas 1 000 $ d’ici le 20 septembre 2025, les bénéficiaires de nos programmes financés profiteront tout de même de votre bon travail. Tous les dons sont non remboursables, et ce, même si vous n’atteignez pas l’objectif de 1 000 $ requis pour descendre en rappel.

 

Requirements in order to participate: 

  1. There is a weight minimum and maximum between 100 lbs and 300 lbs for safety purposes in order to rappel.
  2. There is no age restriction (people in their 80s and 90s have rappelled), but anyone under 18 requires a signature on a legal waiver from a parent or guardian to participate.
  3. You are willing to rappel down a 9 story building (nearly 100ft).
  4. No experience necessary! The Over the Edge team will provide training to help you rappel. 
  5. There is a $75 fee to sign up. This counts towards the $1000 fundraising minimum to participate. 
  6. More questions? Email: stephanie@unitedwaysdg.com

Rain or shine we will rappel! Our expert team leaders are on site to ensure a safe trip for everyone. In the chance of rain, we will still be going down! In the case of more severe weather, we will halt and re-assess for the safety of our rappelers.

 

Exigences de participation :

  1. Par mesure de sécurité, vous devez peser entre 45 et 135 kg (100-300 lb).
  2. Il n’y a aucune limite d’âge (des personnes de 80 et 90 ans ont déjà fait du rappel), mais si vous avez moins de 18 ans, votre parent ou tuteur doit signer une décharge de responsabilité.
  3. Vous souhaitez descendre en rappel un bâtiment de 9 étages (presque 100 pieds)
  4. Aucune expérience nécessaire! L’équipe Over The Edge vous offrira la formation nécessaire.
  5. Les frais d’inscription sont de 75 $, mais ils comptent pour l’atteinte de l’objectif de 1 000 $.
  6. D’autres questions? Courriel : stephanie@unitedwaysdg.com

La descente aura lieu beau temps, mauvais temps. Nos spécialistes de la descente sont sur place pour assurer la sécurité de tout le monde. Il y a possibilité de pluie? La descente a lieu. Si les conditions se font plus menaçantes, nous arrêterons l’événement pour réévaluer la sécurité.
