Beat Cancer: BCAA Atlanta Chapter's Relay For Life 2010

Fellow BC grads need your help. 

The Boston College Alumni Association chapter in Atlanta is participating in this year's Relay for Life event this Friday/Saturday in Cobb County, Georgia. Relay for Life is an event organized by the American Cancer Society, giving participants the opportunity to celebrate the lives of people who have battled cancer, remember loved ones lost, and fight back against cancer. 

For the second straight year, blog reader (and BCAA Atlanta Chapter president) BCMike22 will be leading Team BC in this year's Relay for Life, and the Atlanta Chapter needs your help:

First, I want to say THANK YOU to everyone who donated last year. Your donations made such a big difference! In fact, the BC chapter here in Atlanta did so well we were even honored with a plaque touting the accomplishment from 2009!

It's nice to get this sort of positive pub here in the South! People at the event definitely took notice!

We're a little short staffed this year but we still hope to make our goal of $1,500 raised. We're over halfway there, but the Relay actually is THIS FRIDAY/SATURDAY, so we're short on time!

If you can donate anything, please do. I know many of you have given to other charities and we all get hit up a lot for these types of things. However, if you have ever been affected by this evil disease and can spare a couple bucks to fight it, I sincerely thank you. Together we make a difference.

If you can help out in any way, please do. Click here to donate and help support the BCAA Atlanta Chapter in the fight against cancer.
