Briarcliffe College Raises $8,000 for American Cancer Society

August 18, 2008 – Earlier this month, students, faculty and administrators from the Patchogue campus of Briarcliffe College organized a fundraiser for the American Cancer Society to honor the memory of Briarcliffe College Admissions Representative Irene Colavecchio and others lost to, or touched by, cancer.  The Briarcliffe College Team (organizers pictured here), joined by community, family, and friends, raised over $8,000 during the day’s “Relay for Life“ and “Ceremony of Hope” events and an online fundraising drive. 

Contributions may be made through the end of the month by contacting Karen Santorufo at Briarcliffe College at 631-730-2024 or by logging on to www.bcl.edu/hope.
