Relay For Life Fundraising Event
Relay for Life is a spectacular event sponsored by the American Cancer Society which helps to raise money and awareness about cancer. Various organizations within the community such as churches, high school groups and local businesses rally together for a 24 hour event. Our own Stanberry Insurance Agency has been sponsoring the event for many years. This year, Stanberry Insurance Agency has decided to sponsor a team.
Our first fund-raising event, a yard sale, will be held on Saturday, April 17th from 9:00 am to 2:00 pm. We are hosting the sale at our own Stanberry Insurance Agency parking lot located at 715 East Main Street in Sylva, North Carolina.
We have all been eager to raise money for our team. Everyone has been cleaning out closets and clearing out attics in hopes to find some “treasure” for interested buyers. We’ve collected everything from clothing to books to house wares for the sale. We’re expecting a solid turn out because the weather will be beautiful on Saturday and we know Sylva is a community that is invested in giving back to others.
Today, we all know someone who has been touched by cancer-a family member, a friend, or a co-worker. It feels good to give back to the community as well as help in some way to find a cure for this disease. We are looking forward to a successful fund-raising event as well as the Relay For Life event on June 4. Stanberry Insurance Agency is committed to help fight cancer!
