Hello, my name is Sunoz Soroosh, but a lot of people call me Sunny. I am 18 years old and I will be attending UC Berkeley next year. I am a Persian and Arabic dancer with Niosha Dance Academy.

Once again this year, I am participating in the American Cancer Society's Relay for Life of Tri-Cities on June 25-26, 2005 with Team Niosha Dance Academy. This is an overnight walkathon event, where each team tries to keep at least one member walking around the track for 24 hours. We also perform at this event, along with many other musicians and dancers. At the Relay for Life, there is a Luminaria ceremony, to honor loved ones lost to cancer, and a Survivor's lap to honor those who have won the battle against it. Each year, my fellow dancers and I participate in this event and raise money for cancer awareness and research, and since our dance teacher, Niosha Nafei, is a cancer survivor, this event is extremely important to us. But personally, I participate in this event in honor of my grandparents, Jamshid and Behbood Soroosh, because I lost them both to cancer. I am committed to raising money for the fight against cancer, and last year I raised 300 dollars, which was the most money out of anybody in my dance class.

This year, I have raised my goal to 400 dollars, and I hope that you can help me out by donating to this cause. You can donate online by going to my American Cancer Society webpage.

Any amount of money is appreciated, and will go to help win the fight against cancer. All donations are tax deductible and please do not hesitate to email me with any questions.

Thank you for your time,
Sunoz "Sunny" Soroosh
Dancer, Niosha Dance Academy
