The American Cancer Society Relay for Life is a 12-hour event that raises funds and awareness to fight cancer. Dedicated teams walk the track throughout that time to remember cancer never sleeps. All proceeds go to the American Cancer Society. At a Relay for Life event, we consider a survivor as anyone who has ever heard the words “you have cancer”. And we invite all cancer survivors in the community to attend as our guests of honor.
THIS YEARS THEME: “Around the World for a Cure” Date: June 10
Holy Family Church will once again have a tent at the local level to help raise funds for this cause. This is a wonderful community and family friendly event to participate in. Our tent will be decorated in the theme: “The Pacific Islands”
