Team 9972
As veterans, we've seen firsthand the strength and resilience of the human spirit. We've fought for our country, and now we're joining the fight against another enemy: cancer. Cancer doesn't discriminate. It touches veterans, their families, and our communities. At VFW Post 9972, we believe in serving our community, and that includes supporting those battling this disease. The Relay for Life is a powerful event that brings people together to celebrate survivorship, remember those we've lost, and raise critical funds for the American Cancer Society. Here at VFW Post 9972, we're joining the Relay for Life for a few key reasons: To honor our fellow veterans: Many veterans face a higher risk of certain cancers due to their service. We want to stand with them in the fight. To support our community: Cancer impacts families throughout Sierra Vista. We want to show our support for those battling the disease and their loved ones. To raise money for a cure: The American Cancer Society funds groundbreaking research and critical patient support services. Every dollar raised brings us closer to a cure. We invite you to join us at the Relay for Life! Together, we can make a difference in the fight against cancer.

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

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.
