MCC AAWCC Raises Funds for the Rochester Breast Cancer Coalition


The American Association of Women in Community Colleges, MCC Chapter, would like to thank you for your support!  On Friday February 18th, 2011 over fifty people walked and raised more than $550 for the Rochester Breast Cancer Coalition at the “Pink the PAC” at Brighton and “Pink the Atrium” at Damon in response to the National AAWCC initiative to make February Breast Cancer Awareness month.     

AWWCC members decked out the PAC and the Atrium in pink and sold bracelets for $1.00.  We had giveaways of AAWCC mirrors, breast cancer bookmarks, pink candies, and even survivor pins to recognize those who have overcome breast cancer.  Sodexo donated water for those walking.  We also held two raffles for an AAWCC thumb drive and a AAWCC CD holder.  Congratulations to our winners of the raffles, Anne Kirkpatrick and Rimsha Khan. 

We also have a special breast cancer necklace pen to congratulate our top fundraisers:  Courtney Belluccio raising $130, Lisa Armstrong raising $75, Yolanda Johnson raising $50, Tina Cummings raising $57, and Julianna Frisch raising $40. 

Way to go AAWCC and MCC!
