Relay for Life at Fordham!

Last Friday, April 21st was Fordham College at Lincoln Center's 9th annual Relay for Life event! The event was a huge success, and the original fundraising goal of $5,000 was almost doubled, with the collective efforts of the participants reaching a total of $8,105 (and counting)! All proceeds from Relay for Life go directly to the American Cancer Society to provide services to cancer patients and contribute to cancer research.
Relay for Life was held on Friday, 4/21 from 4-10pm in the Indoor Plaza.
Each team hosted an individual fundraiser to raise money during Relay for Life.  This year, teams were especially creative with their fundraisers, selling temporary tattoos, succulents, raffle tickets, cupcakes, hosting "Pie an RA," and more! Because of the amazing and dedicated teams, Relay for Life brought in many new registrants on during the event.
The RHA team sold slime at their fundraising table!
Relay for Life is a bit different at FCLC than at most universities because of its small campus, but that doesn't stop the students' enthusiasm! The participants continuously walked laps in the Indoor Plaza to show their commitment to the cause.


Relay for Life participants were excited to take to first lap!
The FCLC branch of Colleges Against Cancer has worked all year to ensure that Relay for Life is a success, hosting fundraisers and team building events and coordinating with sponsors in and outside of Fordham.  This year, we were able to raffle off amazing prizes like free SoulCycle passes, Fordham swag, Amazon gift cards, and a Kindle Fire thanks to the many amazing sponsors of the event.

Fordham College at Lincoln Center's Relay for Life has become a staple spring event over the past nice years, and it gets better and better with each passing year!
