Since starting back up after break,
Relay For Life at UVa has made some incredible strides for the 2013 season in
just a few short weeks. There are now
700 participants for the main event and as it gets closer and closer to April
19th, we want to see that number grow even more! So you know what
that means? Keep signing up! Currently, we have raised over 33,000 dollars.
Since the last blog post, that number has increased significantly, so why stop
now, let’s give cancer a run for its money this year!
This month there are some amazing fundraisers
going on around grounds, so be on the lookout! The Campus Cookies “Like” Event started February 10th and ends
March 3rd. For every “Like” Campus
Cookies’ Facebook page receives, they will donate 25 cents to Relay For Life.
There is not an easier way to raise money for a great cause than with the click
of a button. Go to www.facebook.com/CampusCookies
and “like” away.
A special shout out goes to Hair Ties
for a Cure, spearheaded by Lana Hoang. So far she has raised over
700 dollars by selling these super trendy non-hair crimping ties. They make
great practical gifts, so if you’re looking for a little something extra for a
special Valentine of yours and want to branch away from Teddy bears and
chocolates, here you go! Also if you need to add the finishing touch to your
little’s basket that you know will be used, this is the perfect thing. Visit
the Facebook page for more information on ordering: http://www.facebook.com/events/149029531920489/?fref=ts
The month of February is also a
very important month for Relay because it is our Pledge Month. This month we hope to see numbers sky-rocket
to make this the most successful year yet. Join us by pledging to raise 100
dollars this month by signing up at https://sites.google.com/site/relayatuva/;
there is still a lot of time left!
Much Relay Love,
Relay For Life at UVA
