WPCNR PRESS BOX. From Nadine Baker, American Cancer Society. November 24, 2004: Don't miss the charity basketball event of the season! On Thursday, December 2 at 7:30 pm, Iona College and Fordham University will battle it out in a charity basketball game at Iona College's Mulcahy Fieldhouse at 715 North Avenue, New Rochelle. For ticket information contact the Iona Box Office at 914-633-2491. Last year, more than 2,000 people attended the event raising close to $30,000 for the American Cancer Society.
Snapple Beverage, the title sponsor of the event, will collaborate with Iona College for some entertaining halftime activities. Mascots will race each other and a variety of giveaways will be distributed to the crowd. Snapple will also provide a free bottle of Snapple to all attendees. All proceeds from Coaches vs. Cancer events benefit the American Cancer Society's four-pronged program of cancer research, education, advocacy and services.
"Coaches vs. Cancer is an instrumental part of the American Cancer Society's effort of supplying lifesaving information to help reach our goal of finding the ultimate answer ? a cure for all cancers," said Jim Boeheim, National Chairman of the Coaches vs. Cancer Council of the American Cancer Society and Syracuse University Head Basketball Coach.
Coaches vs. Cancer is a partnership begun in 1993 by the American Cancer Society (ACS) and the National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC). Since its inception, Coaches vs. Cancer has united over 500 NABC member coaches who have helped raise over $20 million nationwide for the American Cancer Society. For additional information, contact the American Cancer Society at 1-800-ACS-2345.
