Description
Join us as we celebrate our 20th year! Relay For Life is the American Cancer Society’s national signature event and is as much an awareness-raiser as it is a fundraiser. This family-oriented team event brings participants from all parts of the community together in a “celebration of life.” Businesses, civic clubs, religious groups, friends, and families take turns walking in relay fashion while they also celebrate the critical role the American Cancer Society plays in the fight against cancer. Thousands of local residents have attended the event throughout the past nineteen years. Nearly $4 million has been raised for the American Cancer Society’s research and patient services from the Greater Westerly Relay events. We celebrate our guests of honor, our survivors, as well as their caregivers, and remember loved ones lost. We also share the American Cancer Society's mission with education on ways to live a healthy lifestyle and advocacy for best health practices.
