Relay For Life of San Diego

Cancer Stompers

The Cancer Stompers are BACK!  We might look a little bit different, but the goal is the same. To help recognize those that are fighting and surviving, remembering those that we have lost, and fight back against cancer to fund research and spread awareness. 
 
We started with Relay for Life in the Mira Mesa/Scripps Ranch relay in 2008.  I decided to have a team in honor of a friend that was going through breast cancer.  After that our team just grew and grew. We united with other teams to help the Relay grow.  I served on the committee for several years and co-chaired the event the year we made over $100,000.  My co-chair went on to win volunteer of the year and serve as a respected member of the Relay for Life family! It was a year to remember.  We enjoyed camping out, (at that time it was 24 hours) and we took our walking seriously.   We had some very dedicated team memebers that came out every year to support.  
 
One team member continued to participate even after our team took a break.  He has walked every year since then.   He walks for the whole time people are on the track. Only to break for lunch, dinner and the bathroom. Otherwise he is walking.  He has continued to raise money, awareness and show his dedication to the cause.  This year I want to bring back the team and participate with him.  
 
I would love to welcome back some of our old team members and invite new ones to join.  It is a cause that touches everyone in some way.
Join our team, donate, support a walker or come out on the day of the event to see what it is all about.  If you know cancer survivor's that would like to be honored I would love to include them. 
 
Thank you,

How Fundraising Impacts Your Community

Cancer hits far too close to home, so the funds you raise will help do the same. Through services and resources like free rides to chemo, free places to stay near hospitals, and a live 24/7 helpline, cancer patients and their families will feel the love. Here’s how recent money raised has been put to incredible uses.

Since 1991 we have invested $3.43 billion in cancer research.

We have received over 360,000 calls and chats from patients and caregivers seeking support in 2023.

Cancer patients benefited from the ACS transportation support through our Road To Recovery program and transportation grants in 2023, with nearly 769,000 rides provided.

Our Sponsors

Many thanks to our generous sponsors for fueling the American Cancer Society's fight against cancer.

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.
