About the Nonprofit
Visit Our Website American Cancer Society mission statement. 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.
Through Relay For Life, our signature fundraising event for the American Cancer Society, we mobilize the world’s largest movement to defeat cancer once and for all. We’re fighting for every birthday, threatened by every cancer, in every community. And we get results. Relay For Life of Santa Clarita Valley is the second largest Relay event in the state of California, and a top 20 event in the nation, celebrating over 400 cancer survivors.
