About Me

Relay For Life brings together more than 3.5 million people to celebrate the lives of those who have battled cancer, remember loved ones lost, and empower individuals and communities to fight back against this disease. relay brings people together from all walks of life to rais much needed awareness. No matter who you are, there's a place for you at Relay.
Join us at any one of the 4,800 community gatherings where teams of people camp out at local high schools, parks, or fairgrounds and take turns circling a track or path. Because cancer never sleeps, each team is asked to have a representative on the track at all times during the overnight event.
CELEBRATE: Celebrate the lives of people who have battled cancer. The strength of survivors inspires others to continue thier fight.
REMEMBER: Remember loved ones lost to the disease. At Relay, people who have walked alongside others battling cancer can grieve and find healing.
FIGHT BACK: We Relay because we have been touched by cancer and desperately want to put an end to the disease. Make a committment to save lives by taking up the fight.
