“Relay For Life is the signature fundraiser cancer walk for the American Cancer Society.” Each year volunteers sign up to walk for an end to cancer. Teams organize to take turns walking a designated pathway or track. Team members solicit donations for their efforts.
The day-long events feature various activities associated with the battle against cancer. The American Cancer Society’s Relay For Life webpage provides additional information.
