Relay for Life is a community fundraising event where Canadians across the country join together in the fight against cancer.
In 2014, nearly 400 Relays took place across Canada. Participants walk or run together around a track or path at a local school, park or fairground, passing a baton to their fellow participants and working together toward one common goal the fight against cancer.
Each community’s Relay for Life is unique, with events running between six and 12 hours.
When you register for Relay for Life, you set a fundraising goal and work with a team or on your own to raise funds to advance cancer research and support Canadians living with cancer.
By raising funds as a participant in Relay For Life, you will make progress against this disease by funding Canada’s best and brightest researchers who are working tirelessly toward the next breakthrough. You will also help to ease the burden of cancer by providing vital information services and compassionate support programs for people with cancer and their families.
