Relay for Life Raises $36,000 and Counting
The final totals are still coming in for this year’s northern Will County Relay for Life, held on April 11 from 6 p.m. to 6 a.m. the following morning at Lewis University. Students from Joliet Junior College, the University of St. Francis and more than 600 of Lewis’ own students relayed and raised money to celebrate the lives of those touched by cancer. To date, this year’s combined effort has raised more than $36,000 in funds to help find a cure.
For the past five years Lewis has not only participated in the combined effort relay, but hosted it as well. The student response is always a positive one. “There is not a single person who hasn’t been touched in some way by cancer,” said Monica Jaiswal, Assistant to the Dean of Student Services and Relay for Life chairperson for Lewis University.
