Dal alumnus Yazeed Sobaih (BComm’10) began raising money for cancer seven years ago when he lost his father to lung cancer.

Sobaih began an annual gaming tournament that raises money for the Canadian Cancer Society called Frag-For-Cancer. Since starting Frag in 2006, the fundraiser has raised almost $60,000.

Sobiah is also involved with Give To Live, a charity that raises money for cancer research by organizing large cross-country bike rides.
