This year is going to be really big!

The journey to end cancer starts with a single step. The American Cancer Society invites you to take that step with us by joining the global Relay For Life movement. When you walk to end cancer at a Relay event, it's your opportunity to not only honor cancer survivors and remember loved ones lost, but also to raise awareness about what we can do to stay well from cancer and raise money to help fuel the world's largest walk to end cancer.

You can be a cancer fighter and help us reach our goals this year!
With your help,
we will have
91 teams
1013 participants
175 survivors

Wanted "Cancer Survivors!"

As the inspiration for the American Cancer Society’s continuous fight against cancer, you are the heart of our Relay For Life community events that celebrate cancer survivors, remember those lost, and fight back against a disease that touches too many.

No matter where you are in your cancer journey – newly diagnosed or many years out of treatment – we invite you and your caregivers to join in our community’s Relay For Life.

FIGHT BACK through research! THIS YEAR, selected Relay event(s) in our community are offering the unique opportunity to participate first-hand in a landmark new study, the Cancer Prevention Study-3 (CPS-3).The American Cancer Society will be enrolling people into CPS-3, a long-term study that will help researchers better identify the lifestyle, environmental, and genetic factors that cause or prevent cancer. Please spread the word and visit the Cancer Prevention Study-3 website to find an enrollment location near you and for more information about how to participate in research today for a cancer free tomorrow!
