This year's Relay For Life

We hope that you are pumped to Relay this year as you walk laps with your team, enjoy fun activities and entertainment, celebrate cancer survivors in your community and remember those that we have lost to this terrible disease. Thanks to your participation and fundraising leading up to the event, we are taking steps toward a brighter future together.

Today, nearly half of Canadians are expected to be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime. But with your help, we’re funding groundbreaking research and able to provide a national support system for people with cancer, their caregivers and their families.

We’re so grateful for your support of Relay. It shows Canadians affected by cancer that they never have to walk alone.
