It may still be over a month away, but Relay for Life is rapidly approaching. The Relay for Life club at Coppell High School is already busy selling luminarias for the big event and students from CHS are putting together groups and raising money.
Relay for the Life is the American Cancer Society’s biggest fundraiser and gives people the chance to team up to raise money and awareness and honor those that have struggled with cancer. It is an overnight event, taking place from evening to morning.
Relay for Life is an event that brings together the entire community, whether you are remembering a loved one or joining a team to raise money, the people of Coppell always gets involved with this great cause. This year, the Coppell event will take place on April 30, 2011, starting at 5:00 pm. For more information or to sign up or volunteer, visit the Coppell Relay for Life website.
