My Relay Experience

For over 27 years, Nan has been spreading the word about The American Cancer Society and Relay For Life. A tireless volunteer, caregiver, and cancer survivor, she founded the Virginia Beach Relay For Life event. Watch Nan's story, then join us or start your own team today.

Why Join Relay For Life?

1 in 3 people in the U.S. will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime. One of those people could be you or someone you love. That's why we Relay. When you join a Relay For Life event, you're helping the American Cancer Society fund groundbreaking research, crucial patient care programs, and education and prevention information. When you Relay, you help save lives.

Here’s how recent money raised has been put to incredible uses.

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.
