FCC Alumni & Friends were so happy to participate as a team alongside Chabot Student Life and Chabot AGS Club at the East Bay Relay for Life on Saturday, August 26. FCC Alumni & Friends had a goal of raising $300 for the American Cancer Society, and our team was able to raise an outstanding $548! Great job, #teamChabot!
All proceeds go to Relay for Life, which benefits the American Cancer Society (ACS) to support ACS's service and lifesaving research.
