The organization is very successful in creating change. There many roads, schools and a mountain named after Terry. The biggest change of them all is that the Terry Fox Foundation has made 800 million dollars. All that money is used for cancer research and it’s for the good. In 2007, they have launched the TFRI (The Terry Fox Research Institute. “The Institute seeks to improve significantly the outcomes of cancer research for the patient through a highly collaborative, team-oriented, milestone-based approach to research that will enable discoveries to translate quickly into practical solutions for cancer patients worldwide.”  All of the stats for money invested, cancer researchers and cancer institutions have increased every year.

There is still no cure for cancer yet right now but I would say this organization is a success due the all the achievements that have accomplished.  We should still say this an accomplishment for this individual/organization because Terry Fox’s goal was to raise 1 million dollars for cancer research but they have exceeded their goal times 800, 40 years later.
