Today, February 29th, is very important one for
the South Atlantic Division of Relay For Life. Taking advantage of this one
extra day, Relay is encouraging every Relay team to participate in the One More
Day campaign by asking us, “What would you do with one more day?”
What a great question.
With the end goal of raising 2.12 million dollars in two
days, our Relay division has taken on an enormous challenge. However, if we read the
responses of our fellow Relayers have submitted as to what they would do with
one more day, this goal doesn’t seem quite so difficult to attain. The passion
and drive that is present in Relayers across the division is so empowering that
I think we should all take some time to read other’s stories, and inspire
ourselves to make a difference on this one extra day.
Here, UGA Relay shares with us the story of Mary Evelyn.
Although she has lost her battle with cancer, along with
countless others, Mary Evelyn continues to live in hearts, and minds. On this
day, the 29th of February, let’s all remember those who didn’t make
it, cheer for those who have, and hope for those whose futures are still
unclear. Take some time and go to your Relay page and send out some emails, and
ask youself:
What would YOU do with one more day?
Relay-Love,
Relay For Life at UVA
