Comunidad Servicio
By: the one… the only… Rives Maddox
What I did…
Relay for Life is THE way
to do community service!
All money raised goes to
support the American
Cancer Society.
What is Relay for Life?
• Much more than a walk around a track,
Relay is a time to celebrate those who
have battled cancer, remember those lost
and get inspired to fight back.
• By participating, you have the power to
continue the American Cancer Society's
progress toward a future where cancer
doesn't take the lives of our friends and
family.
A little history…
• It began in 1985 in Tacoma, Washington
• 24 hour run against Cancer.
• Was not originally called “Relay for Life”
but “City of Destiny Classic 24-Hour Run
Against Cancer”
F.Y.E.
Here’s our FYE Stand, the theme was “Hanging out
to dry”
Money Maker
We raised money by tye-dying shirts and towels
Me and the BIG guy…
That would be Me… and… Cole… at 5am.
Shake what yo’ momma gave ya!
Sebastien as Pricilla… I’d have to say that’s one sexy
she-male!
In honor… and in memory…
We lit Luminaries in
honor and in
memory of those
who passed and
survived Cancer.
Did I have fun?
Hanging up
a beautiful
poster board
dress… and
me and
Elizabeth
holding
down skittles
while my
brother jacks
the money!
So did I have
fun… heck
yes I did!
Why is it important?
Because helping out the community is
ALWAYS a good thing.
Make an impact on others.
You have a chance to give back to others who
otherwise may not have a chance.
What did I learn?
Giving back to the community is important
Life isn’t always about thinking about yourself,
it’s about investing in others too
Doing community service can make a big
difference
Makes me feel good about myself
