Despite the name, Relay For Life isn’t a race-it’s an inspiring festival of hope. It’s a celebration to honor cancer survivors, to thank caregivers, to remember those lost, and to help fund a cure for cancer. We need volunteers to help make this event possible!
Our event will include music, games, prizes, food, and fun for the entire family. There will also be a very moving luminaria ceremony at sunset. Unlike some other events, Relay For Life is for those affected by any type of cancer, and the American Cancer Society is rated 4/4 stars by Charity Navigator. We hope you'll consider volunteering with us!
No additional volunteer opportunities at this time.
