~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Thank you From your 2009 Committee and the American Cancer Society! I Walked… I walked around a track today… I walked to help a disease go away. I walked because there is a need… I walked that bodies could be freed. I walked to give a small child hope… I walked to help someone cope. I walked for a husband or a wife… I walked to give someone life. I walked with my head held high… I walked for that one about to die. I walked excitedly, not demure… I walked to help find a cure. I walked for everyone to see… I walked for you, I walked for me. |
One in three people will be diagnosed with cancer during their lifetime. The American Cancer Society Relay For Life® is a life-changing event that brings together more than 3.5 million people across the country each year to celebrate the lives of those who have battled cancer, remember loved ones lost, and fight back against a disease that takes too much. | | To watch a short video on Relay For Life and the impact that the event has on people and the community, click the image above. |
This year marks the beginning of our celebration of 25 years of Relay For Life®. Sign up or donate today and join us to mark this milestone and the successes we’ve achieved together during the last 25 years. Between September 1, 2008 and August 31, 2009, Relay For Life® communities nationwide are hosting special “Show Us Your HOPE” activities that visually depict the passion Relayers have for the fight against cancer. Ideally, these activities are separate from Relay For Life® events and demonstrate how the American Cancer Society in our community celebrates survivors, remembers loved ones lost and fights back against cancer through Relay For Life®. Learn more about Show Us Your HOPE or about Relay For Life® and how together we can Celebrate, Remember, and Fight Back against cancer!
