Description

The American Cancer Society is the nationwide community-based voluntary health organization dedicated to eliminating cancer as a major health problem by preventing cancer, saving lives, and diminishing suffering from cancer, through research, education, advocacy, and service.

 

Relay For Life is the signature fundraiser for the American Cancer Society (ACS). 

 

I am a volunteer with the American Cancer Society and participating in the Relay for Life La Mirada/Whittier in May. Relay For Life is a 12 hour event – a team relay walk – someone from each team is walking 12 hours to represent that cancer journey. The event has ceremonies to celebrate survivors and caregivers, remember those who have lost the battle to cancer and commitments to fights back against the disease.

 

Our Team (Pink Panthers) has a fundraiser where we make custom scratchers. All tickets win a prize and 100% of the money raised is donated to the American Cancer Society.  Your donation(s) will be on our prize table !  We are also hosting a bowling fundraiser pre-Relay. We would be honored to be able to present a donation from your organization.  We will also recognize your company in our event program as a Thank You.

 

The Relay for Life event is September 15, 2024, in La Mirada, California.
