Why We Relay

Survivor

Be the first to share the reason YOU Relay and inspire others in the fight against cancer. If you're a cancer survivor or caregiver to someone who has/had cancer, sharing your story can help inspire others going through similar circumstances. If you're not a survivor or caregiver, maybe you participate to give back to our community or in honor of a friend or family member. Either way, we want to hear YOUR story! Please email nelsoncountyrfl@aol.com to have your story highlighted here!

Luminaria

One important aspect of the Relay For Life is the opportunity for people to come together to remember loved ones lost to cancer and honor those who have won their battle. As the sun sets over campsites and darkness falls, the night is brightened by the glow of illuminated bags called Luminaria, each bearing the name of someone who has battled cancer.

Light a Luminaria in honor or in memory of someone you love...
