Kinetic Dance Company Raises Over $16,000 for Relay for Life

The Kinetic Dance Company of Bolingbrook, a nonprofit organization, participated in the Relay for Life Bolingbrook this past weekend on June 7th. Cancer has touched the lives of many KDC families. KDC has been participating in Relay for 11 years. This year, the dancers set a goal to raise $15,000 for the American Cancer Society. As of today, they have met and exceeded their goal by raising $16,545.77 and the total is still expected to increase from corporate matching funds.

The top fundraisers this year were Maddie Zafir at $2210, Emily Baez at $1623.35, and Claire Mitchell at $1225. In total, the team had 7 walkers join the “Grand Club” in the Relay for Life by raising over $1000.

In addition to surpassing their fundraising goal for The American Cancer Society, the Kinetic Dance Company also performed a moving tribute to all those who are affected by this disease during the Luminaria Ceremony. The dancers took their audience through a variety of emotions that cancer victims and their families go through, from that first moment of diagnosis to thinking of the possibility of the future without those that are ill.

Donations to the “KineDanCo” Team will be accepted until August at the following website: http://tinyurl.com/lamznqq
