American Cancer Society Special Events Planning in the Fight Against Cancer
Help your entire community fight back against cancer! The American Cancer Society is looking for people in your area to help build a Relay For Life event. Volunteer opportunities to work in areas such as: Team Development: help bring in teams to participate at your Relay For Life and then help them to be successful! Survivorship: work directly with identifying both survivors of cancer and those who are still fighting the disease within your community. You will also help plan a way to recognize these patients and survivors as heroes of your community. Logistics: Are you good at understanding the back-end flow of events? Help bring your Relay For Life to success by helping to find a great venue, understanding safety, local government and more. Food and Entertainment: Who doesn't love to listen to some good music and eat some good food in the name of a worthy cause? Ensure that your Relay For Life participants have a great time by helping with planning entertainment and food! Sponsorship: Fundraising is the backbone of a non-profit event, but it makes a much bigger impact with the support of your community. Help your local businesses get involved by sponsoring your Relay For Life and getting their name on official Relay For Life materials! Luminaria: This is the icing on the Relay For Life cake. The Luminaria Ceremony is a unique reflection ceremony where participants light candles in memory of those who we have lost to cancer and in honor of those who have survived their personal fight with the disease. Get involved by helping to bring this beautiful event to your community. And More!! Last year, Relay For Life events across the country raised $305 million that comes directly back to your community through cancer research, patient services, education and advocacy. But we can't do it alone: We need your help. Cancer has directly affected so many of our lives, take this time to make an effect against cancer. Join us in the fight against cancer. Help make your community's Relay For Life a success!
