What is Relay for Life?

Relay for Life, the most successful fundraising event in the nation and signature event of the American Cancer Society, is a community based event that empowers individual communities to get involved to end the pain and suffering associated with cancer. Above all else, Relay for Life is a celebration of life, a celebration of health, a celebration of cancer survivorship, and a way to pay tribute to those who have lost their fight with cancer.

Who Gets Involved?

Everyone is encouraged to participate in Relay for Life, including friends, families, businesses, organizations, elementary, middle and high school students, college groups, churches, youth organizations, community groups, and most importantly, cancer patients and survivors. One in three Americans will be diagnosed with cancer during their lives, and everyone will be touched by cancer at some point. By being a part of Relay for Life, you are not only raising money to fund the mission of the American Cancer Society, but you are also helping to raise awareness of this disease.
