Relay For Life is a movement, a community of like-minded survivors, caregivers, volunteers, and participants who believe that the future can be free from cancer.
WHY Relay
For more than 35 years, communities across the world have come together to honor and remember loved ones and take action for lifesaving change. Even when facing the challenges of COVID-19, Relayers have found a way to fundraise for a future free from cancer. Funds raised through Relay For Life directly support breakthrough research, 24/7 support for cancer patients, access to lifesaving screenings, and much more.
A generation of research depends on what we do right now. ACS works to be there for scientists at pivotal points in their career – to give them the support they need to keep great research going or to take their ideas from dream to reality.
As a definitive and the most trusted source of accurate, scientifically proven cancer information, we give patients and caregivers the facts needed to help in their fight.
ACS wants to make sure everyone has the ability to benefit from advances in research, prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of cancer. All people deserve a fair and just opportunity to prevent, find, treat, and survive cancer.

Would you like to lead the team or join the team?
This isn’t what I wanted.
Cancer has touched all of us in some way. And we want to stop this disease in its tracks. We'll spend the next few weeks fundraising for the American Cancer Society. Then, on the day of the event, we'll honor the lives lost to cancer, celebrate survivors, and support the caregivers who so selflessly help others.
Together, we'll be a part of making a difference in this important cause.
