Why I Relay- My 1st Relay For Life was in 2005

I Relay because my Dad's life was cut short due to cancer. Unfortunately, so many more relatives and friends have also lost their lives to cancer. Recently, my husband and best friend were diagnosed with cancer. Thankfully, both melanomas were removed via surgery and they are cancer free. I strive to see an end to cancer during my lifetime. Relay gives me the unique opportunity to celebrate the lives of those who have cancer, remember loved ones who are no longer with us and to support the American Cancer Society with raising money for research to find a cure.

We are excited to announce some wonderful changes to our Relay For Life. We merged 4 Relays in order to host a much larger community-based family friendly event. Going forward, our new name will be East Valley AZ Relay For Life.  Our 2024 Relay for Life theme is Greatest Cure on Earth. No two Relay events are the same, but they all support the American Cancer Society's Mission.  

Funds raised at the East Valley AZ Relay For Life, support cancer patient programs and groundbreaking research that can help save lives. This event also celebrates over 15.5 million cancer survivors nationwide. Please consider making a donation to our team and/or purchasing a luminaria in order to help support the fight against cancer. Thanks so much for your generosity! We hope to see you there.
