69 Teams, 962 participants, over $160,000 raised in one night. These are the numbers from the American Cancer Society’s Relay for Life - East Orlando.
This year the Orlando BLIA YAD attended for the first time, and had outstanding results. As a group we raised $1,156.60! Our dedication carried deep into the night and throughout the early morning. We sold buddhist trinkets, boba milk tea, bottled water, egg drop soup, popcicles, chinese doughnuts, and hot chocolate. As one of the last booths still open after 2am, we served hot chocolate on a very chilly night, which resulted in the YAD being one of the most popular groups throughout the night.
