Event Details
Relay For Life unites communities
Each event reflects its community’s unique spirit while embracing four signature traditions:
- Celebrating survivors – Honoring those who have faced cancer with courage and resilience.
- Recognizing caregivers – Acknowledging the strength and support of those who stand by their loved ones.
- Lighting the way – Remembering those we’ve lost through the moving luminaria ceremony.
- Taking action – Uniting to build a future free from cancer.
