Logan County Relay for Life sets up fundraising goal meter
Still time for you to join in

[June 05, 2019]     Dennis Cooley with the Relay For Life of Logan County has erected a RFL Thermometer on the Lincoln College lot across from the main campus on Keokuk and Ottawa Streets. The money raised thus far: $35,500 has been noted on it and progress of donations will be recorded on the thermometer as they are posted toward this year’s goal of $65,000.

Other goals are 24 teams and 110 Sponsors (both of which are open for signing up to support)

Fundraisers in the near future that community support will help boost the purple line toward that goal are:
