Cancer walk draws record crowds, donations • Brooklyn Daily

Cancer walk draws record crowds, donations • Brooklyn Daily: The Bergen Beach arm of the American Cancer Society raised $100,000 at its third-annual Relay for Life on June 7 — $30,000 more than last year.

“We blew by our number for last year,” said organizer Joe Gillette. “You usually expect to go up in increments of $10,000.”

This year, the Relay partnered with area schools to raise money, and Gillette said the boost made all the difference.
