General Volunteer Role Description: Community champions are strong advocates for building the Relay For Life event within the Cambrian community. They are outgoing and willing to speak to groups and individuals about Relay For Life and American Cancer Society programs.
Specific tasks can include: helping at a tabling events and outreach fairs in the community, posting flyers to local businesses and organizations, and assisting the volunteer leaders in making phone calls to past participants.
This is a great opportunity for individuals of all ages to learn more about the American Cancer Society and become a leader in the community by providing American Cancer Society information and resources to the Cambrian area.
Training will be provided and you’ll receive support from other volunteers and American Cancer Society staff.
Time commitment is flexible as we will work with your schedule and as community events come up. We do have monthly meetings that are on average 1.5 hours starting in September through May to bring all of the Relay For Life of Cambrian volunteers together.
Here at the American Cancer Society, our vision is a world free from the pain and suffering of cancer. From research to education, prevention to diagnosis, and treatment to recovery, we provide support to everyone impacted by cancer. Together with millions of supporters, we empower communities worldwide to join us.

About American Cancer Society - Relay For Life
Location:
747 Camden Ave.,, Suite B, Campbell, CA 95008, US
Mission Statement
The American Cancer Society is the nationwide community-based voluntary health organization dedicated to eliminating cancer as a major health problem by preventing cancer, saving lives, and diminishing suffering from cancer, through research, education, advocacy and service.
Description
The American Cancer Society Relay For Life is a life-changing event that gives everyone in communities across the globe a chance to celebrate the lives of people who have battled cancer, remember loved ones lost, and fight back against the disease. This is the signature event of the American Cancer Society and the largest community activity of its kind. At Relay, teams of people camp out at a local high school, park, field, or fairground and take turns walking or running around a track or path. Each team is asked to have a representative on the track at all times during the event. Relays are 24-hour overnight events to represent the fact that cancer never sleeps.
