Dedicate a Luminaria		Survivor Information and Registration
	The Luminaria Ceremony is the opportunity for people to come together to remember loved ones lost to cancer and honor those who have won their battle.

WHY I RELAY

I relay for my father and for the hope that no child has to say goodbye to their parent.

RELAYER OF THE WEEK

Mark Herzlich

MARK HERZLICH
Last spring, BC’s star linebacker Mark Herzlich was diagnosed with Ewing’s Sarcoma, a malignant tumor often found in bone or soft tissue. He fought a long, difficult battle these past several months, underwent chemotherapy, and announced in early October that he was 99.9% cancer free. Mark has been doing an AMAZING job raising awareness about Relay For Life, attracting over 1,500 members to his group on Facebook and raising an incredible $2,399.00 for his team, Herznation. Keep up the awesome work, Mark!

Boston College is selling Beat Cancer t-shirts in honor of football player Mark Herzlich. Mark was diagnosed with Ewing's Sarcoma, and in order to support his fight against cancer, BC designed these t-shirts. Profits from every shirt sold will be donated to the American Cancer Society in support of Ewing's Sarcoma research. It's a great shirt for a great cause...do you own one yet? Click here to buy yours today!
