Our mission is to save lives, celebrate lives, and lead the fight for a world without cancer.

Relay For Life is the signature fundraiser for the American Cancer Society. Relay is staffed and coordinated by volunteers in more than 5,200 communities and 20 countries. Volunteers give of their time and effort because they believe it's time to take action against cancer.

The money raised through Relay For Life events are used to fund live-saving cancer research, patient support programs, prevention information and education, and detection and treatment programs.
