2015-16 MAAC GOODWORKS CHALLENGE STANDINGS
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 received
a $1,000 donation, which will be made to the Miles of Hope Breast Cancer Founda-
tion. The Miles of Hope Breast Cancer Foundation was established to fund 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 organizations, but in 2004 they decided to focus their
fundraising efforts on helping their friends and neighbors in the eight counties of the
Hudson Valley.
