AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY HONORS KEN ESRIG, CHAIRMAN FOR DELRAY BEACH

RELAY FOR LIFE

Esrig Chairs Event Two Years in a Row, Bringing in Over $200K 

 

 Boca Raton, FL (May 11, 2005) – The American Cancer Society honors Kenneth Esrig, local business leader and author, for raising $212,000 within a one year period. Esrig has served as Chairman for the Delray Beach Relay For Life for the past two years. The Delray Beach Relay For Life is one of four events that make up the South Palm Beach Community chapter which was named by the American Cancer Society, as one of the country’s top 10 community events in 2004.

 

The fundraiser was held at the American Heritage School, in Delray Beach and brought in thousands of supporters, participants from businesses, families, schools, churches and community organizations. “This event represents an amazing opportunity for our community to celebrate cancer survivors, and honor loved ones lost to the disease,” said Esrig. “The $212,000 raised from Delray Relay For Life will go toward creating valuable patient services, enhancing information access, cancer research, prevention and early detection.”

 

Relay For Life unites millions of people in thousands of communities nationwide. Every dollar raised makes a difference to people whose lives are touched by cancer. The event is designed to be a fun-filled overnight event that offers something for everyone, from the newly diagnosed, to caregivers and friends, to long-term survivors.

 

Kenneth Esrig is the CEO and general partner of Delray MRI in Delray Beach, and an internationally known author and corporate/inspirational speaker. Ken is recognized for branding a new and unique method of motivation called “emotivation,” which is described as using the power of emotions to motivate and drive ambition.

Relay For Life is the American Cancer Society’s signature activity. This year, three million Relay For Life participants in 4,200 local communities across the country will raise millions of dollars to fuel the American Cancer Society's mission. For more information on The American Cancer Society’s Delray Beach Relay For Life, visit: www.cancer.org and click on Relay for Life.
