Relay for Life is the signature fundraising event of the American Cancer Society. In more than 5,200 communities and 20 countries, it is the single largest collective fundraising movement in the world. At Relay For Life events, communities across the globe come together to honor cancer survivors, remember loved ones lost, and fight back against a disease that has already taken too much. The funds you raise truly make a difference in the fight against cancer. Just ask one of the nearly 14 million cancer survivors who will celebrate another birthday this year!
