Now in it's second year, The Pellegrino Law Firm's Relay for life team, "Pellegrino's Pause For the Cause", raised money for research, advocacy, education, and patient services of the American Cancer Society. On June 24 and 25, 2006, members and friends of The Pellegrino Law Firm joined others in the Relay for Life at Quinnipiac University, raising $3,660 as a Team. The entire event raised over $200,000 for Cancer research.
Relay For Life represents the hope that those lost to cancer will never be forgotten, that those who face cancer will be supported, and that one day, cancer will be eliminated. During the event, teams gather together to walk or run laps. Each team keeps at least one team member on the track at all times.
The weather conditions at the event were very soggy.....but there were big smiles on our faithful participants.........
