2017 Day of Service Review

31 May

Posted by Amy Newman on May 31, 2017 • News

O∆K member Melissa Cancio led Florida International University’s Roarthon, a 17-hour student-run dance marathon. The event raised $96,000 for the Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals program, an organization dedicated to saving and improving the lives of children by raising funds for 170 children’s hospitals throughout North America.

Melissa said, “To be a leader, we need to show the reason behind what we do and share with those around us so they are aware and desire to do the same. A leader is well rounded, takes initiative but also allows for individuals in their team to develop and share their thoughts, and is always willing to give their time and efforts to service.”
