Each year 3.5 million Americans take part in Relay for Life working toward the goal of finding a cure for cancer.
Money raised through various fundraising events, goes into research.
Like cancer itself, which can strike the young or old, everyone can participate in the fight to seek an end to its many forms.
From bake and garage sales, to the main 24-hour event, Relay for Life has a common goal.
The annual Niles-Buchanan Relay for Life will be at Niles High School track beginning today at noon.
Groups of friends or fellow workers, who join together in this cause, set their own monetary goals and plan ways to raise that money. These smaller groups join the larger community in its larger goal.
Don't be left out of this valuable component in the fight against cancer. Cancer strikes us all. Hardly a family doesn't know someone who has been diagnosed with cancer.
Get involved and come join the Relay for Life and walk around the track. Find out what you can do.
