FCCU Announces Roger Maris Cancer Center as Second Quarter Charity

05/03/2021

Each quarter, FCCU holds fundraisers for different worthy organizations. The second quarter fundraising organization, as chosen by FCCU staff, is cancer causes.

FCCU will be supporting the Sanford Roger Maris Cancer Center located in Fargo, ND primarily. The Center provides services for our entire region, and is one of the top cancer centers in the country. In addition to cancer services, the Roger Maris Cancer Center offers treatments and support for blood diseases and is an infusion center site. The image below shows how our donations will be used.

To support this organization, staff held numerous internal fundraising events including a pet photo contest, employee silent auction, flower sales and jeans Fridays. Staff also has planned to have teams in local area Relay for Life events to help support as well.
