VIDEO: Dover Bay students blow past Relay for Life fundraising goal
NANAIMO —Students at Dover Bay Secondary School didn’t let a little rain delay keep them from more than doubling their fundraising goal for the Canadian Cancer Society (CCS).
Dover Bay’s student council hosted their Relay for Life event on Monday, June 6 which raised more than $38,000 before the event formally started.
Student council president Sonya Urbanowicz said their original goal was $15,000.
“Last year our goal was $10,000 and we raised $13,000. We wanted to raise our goal just a little bit to see what would happen and we ended up just absolutely crushing it.”
