Over 1,400 students joined together to raise more than $154,000 for the fight against cancer at St. John’s 13th Annual Relay For Life®—a new record for the University, which has supported the event since 2006. The event benefited the American Cancer Society and ran from 6 p.m. on Friday, April 13 until 6 a.m. Saturday, April 14. Throughout the night and the early morning hours, participants representing 84 teams, student clubs, and Greek organizations marched around the perimeter of the basketball court inside Carnesecca Arena on the University’s Queens campus, in support of those who have been affected by cancer. Since 2006, St. John’s students have raised more than $1.2 million through Relay For Life®.
