This year our community outreach chair decided to build a team for Albany Medical College at our local Relay for Life. Our team raised over $1000 by last night, and one of our members even raised $114 to donate her hair! Overall, ACPHS raised over $31,000 with 36 different teams. Great job everyone!
For those of you who are not familiar with the Relay for Life movement, this is the world's largest fundraising event to end cancer! Schools and communities host an event that lasts all night long (usually at least 12 hours) to provide activities, baked goods, food, and much more to raise money. This movement helps to unite communities across the world to celebrate people who have battled cancer, remember loved ones lost, and take action to finish the fight once and for all. Everyday they help save more than 500 lives a day. For more information, or to donate to our team click the link below!
