Mitch Holland

When Mitch Holland, a senior at North Forsyth High School, lost his friend to cancer in 2002, he dedicated himself to helping others suffering from the disease.  Unfortunately, Mitch is limited in participating in American Cancer Society’s biggest fundraiser - Relay for Life - because he suffers from cerebral palsy. However, the disease hasn’t stopped Mitch from using his body to do sit-ups to raise money for the cancer awareness organization.  In 2004, he did 2,000 sit-ups and in 2005, 3,000 sit-ups.  In the four years he has been attempting these sit-ups, he has raised nearly $25,000 for Relay for Life. This year at the Chick-fil-A at Lanier Crossing, Mitch will be on-site with free Mitch Madness T-shirts, available with a $15.00 or more donation to the American Cancer Society. 
 
In support for Mitch’s dedication and hard-work toward this inspiring cause, the Chick-fil-A restaurant at Lanier Crossing will donate ten percent of its net sales from 6 p.m. – 8 p.m. on May 1 to Relay for Life.  Mitch’s goal for this year is to raise more than $15,000 for the organization.
 
On Friday, May 4 at 8:30 am, Mitch will begin to publicly attempt his largest number of sit-ups ever - 5,000 at the North Forsyth High School.
