PARSIPPANY — Through Kafe Mozart’s “Dine for Dollars” program they were able to make a donation to American Cancer Society Relay For Life.
Karen DeChristopher’s team “Angels for Hope” recently participated in a fundraising event at Kafe Mozart, 2900 Route 10 West, Parsippany. This year the employees of Western Pest will be joining Karen’s team. Western Pest is also a major sponsor of this year’s event.
The group distributed flyers to friends, family and team members and when presented at Kafe Mozart the group received 10% of the proceeds.
Karen DeChristopher said “My reason for participating in my Relay For Life event is personal. We all participate in Relay events because we’ve been affected by cancer in some way and because a Relay For Life event gives us the power to make a difference and fight back. This is my opportunity to honor cancer survivors, remember people we have lost, and help raise funds for groundbreaking research, information and services for people fighting cancer.”
Rely for Life Central Morris County will be held at County College of Morris, 214 Center Grove Road, Randolph starting at 4:00 p.m. on Saturday, June 4 and will end at 6:00 a.m. on Sunday, June 5.

At Relay For Life events, communities across the globe come together to honor cancer survivors, remember loved ones lost, and fight back against a disease that has already taken too much. The funds raised truly make a difference in the fight against cancer just ask one of the nearly 14 million cancer survivors who will celebrate another birthday this year!
Relay For Life teams camp out overnight and take turns walking or running around a track or path at a local high school, park, or fairground. Events are up to 24 hours long, and because cancer never sleeps, each team is asked to have at least one participant on the track at all times.
