Reaching out to Vermont
Posted by Brian on 24th February 2009
An update on the Coast to Coast for Hope 2007 Team’s fundraising:
The $12,000.00 (wow!) that the team raised for the struggle against cancer is currently at work helping folks in Vermont and Northern New York State. The team wanted to give back to the community where they had spent time as undergraduates (at Champlain College and the University of Vermont), so the Vermont Cancer Center was a great match.
Specifically, the donation was made to the Vermont Cancer Center’s Research and Education Fund. This fund will be used to address the most urgent needs at the Center.
Congratulations once again to the 2007 team for all that they accomplished. It’s good to see that their ride, which reached out to so many communities across the country, was able to make a significant local impact back in the area where they first organized their trip.
