Essex County College was well represented at the American Cancer Society’s 27th annual Making Strides Against Breast Cancer Walk on Sunday, October 20 in Newark. The Essex County College Community Supporters team of over 50 participants raised more than $800 for cancer research.

The team chanted: “Who are we? ECC!” as they walked alongside survivors, advocates, families and members of the community.

“The Office of Student Development and Counseling wants to thank everyone who donated to the cause. Breast cancer impacts members of our student population and their families,” said ECC Counseling Instructor Jennifer Chapman.

Dressed in pink, the ECC team consisted of Nursing and other students, faculty, and the Student Life & Activities Office.
