Life is for living — not for cancer. In the Canadian Cancer Society, that’s our mantra, and it’s what we’d like people to remember about this fight we’re in. it’s about celebrating life and making a positive difference in the lives of people with cancer.
May is the beginning of Relay For Life season here in BC. If you haven’t attended this event before — make this the year you join us. You’ll be glad you did. It’s a great way for family and friends to celebrate, be inspired and make life a little better for those living with cancer.
Every step you take at Relay For Life helps us continue to help others in so many ways. Some examples? Providing people with a place to stay during difficult treatments, or a safe environment where kids can play and forget about cancer for a little while.
Your pledges also supports life-changing research and access to a friendly, knowledgeable voice on the other end ot the phone who answers some of the tough questions.
There are more than 50 events happening across BC and the Yukon starting in May and continuing over the summer.
