Victoria “Tori” Stafford

On April 8, 2009 Victoria, “Tori” Stafford was abducted from Woodstock, Ontario. After an exhaustive search by police and a concerned community, her death was confirmed on July 21, 2009. Her story has touched many; not just in her local community where support is understandably strong, but across the province—indeed across the country.

In an effort to make a positive change from a situation so negative, Tori’s father Rodney Stafford is biking from Woodstock to Edmonton, Alberta during the month of August.

“Kilometers for Kids” is the Stafford family’s way of bringing the importance of children’s safety to the forefront of the public eye. Child Find Ontario is honoured to be the designated recipient of all funds raised as a result of this and other special events held in Tori’s name. Now in its 25th year, and having helped thousands of families during its inception, Child Find Ontario is recognized as a leader in the issue of missing, abducted and exploited children. The Stafford family recognizes that by supporting Child Find Ontario and its programs and services, they will be able to help many more searching families through what are often their darkest hours. This will be Tori’s legacy.
