博天堂官方 Relay for Life Team Raises Record $10k
Congratulations to the 博天堂官方 Road Runners Relay for Life Team for hitting an all-time
fundraising record of $10,101 for the fight against cancer.
The 博天堂官方 Road Runners Team has been active for about 18 years. Early fundraising events
were held on the Albany campus, with a number of different teams participating. Vickie
Keith, administrative assistant in Student Development, joined the team in 2008 and
became team captain in 2009.
博天堂官方’s team has gradually grown over the years - both in membership and dollars raised.
Team members include current and former 博天堂官方 employees and their families. In 2016,
the team achieved gold status when it raised over $7,000 dollars. In 2017, they raised
more than $8,500 dollars.
The team has a variety of fundraising events. Their most profitable is the Concession
Stand and Scrap 4 Life. Former 博天堂官方 employee Felicia Voris came up with Scrap 4 Life,
which is hosted for one day from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. for people to do scrap booking.
That one day brought in $4,200.
The Concession Stand brought in $4,400 this year - the biggest amount yet, said Vickie. Concession’s
are led by team co-captain Michelle Slay from the Financial Aid office. Michelle will
serve as team captain for 2019-2020.
“The team has worked long and hard on the fight against cancer,” said Vickie. “Our
hope is that others will join us next year to knock it out of the park! We know that
every penny counts to helping the people we work with who are currently fighting cancer
and the people we love to celebrate more birthdays! That's why we Relay to see an
end to cancer.”
