Team Debi
Celebrating my 20th year as a survivor, I choose to support the American Cancer Society thru participation in Relay for Life despite the impact of COVID restrictions. Our Relay for Life will be different from previous years--we will comply with whatever COVID restrictions are imposed--but we want everyone to have a chance against cancer. COVID has put too many cancer patients at risk--attacking already weakened immune systems, delaying cancer treatments, and closing many clinical trials. In celebration of twenty years, I chose to acknowledge the contributions that humbled me participating in my first RFL as a survivor. I will never be able to adequately explain how much that support meant to me; it virtually brought me to my knees when I received $10,000 in donations. Therefore, I have donated that amount to honor the friends and family who have supported me these last twenty years. I am blessed to be alive to help the American Cancer Society and I am even more blessed by the friends and family God has gifted me! Thank you all!

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.
