Marist College is the winner of the 2014-2015 MAAC Goodworks
Challenge. The Red Foxes athletic administrators, student-athletes,
coaches, and Student-Athlete Advisory Committee took part in 54
community service events and earned over 6,300 points this academic
year. As a result of winning this year’s challenge, Marist College has
received a $1,000 donation, which will be made to the Miles of Hope
Breast Cancer Foundation. The Miles of Hope Breast Cancer Foun-
dation was established to fun
d support services for people fighting
breast cancer in the Hudson Valley. The Foundation was started by
Dana Effron and Cathy Varunok, two community activists who saw
a need for increased services for people with breast cancer. For years,
Dana and Cathy raised money for national breast cancer organiza-
tions but in 2004 they decided to focus their fundraising efforts on
helping their friends and neighbors in the eight counties of the Hud-
son Valley, New York. The Foundation’s Executive Director is Pari
Forood.

who have completed community service projec s will be featured
