Anyone with cancer will tell you it’s the fight of their life. We believe it takes a community to fight cancer, and Relay For Life is one of the ways communities across BC and the Yukon can join the fight.

I recently had the privilege of attending the 20th annual Coquitlam Relay For Life – an event that was started by a passionate volunteer in 1999 and has grown to become the largest Relay For Life in Canada.

Relay For Life is a unique, empowering and unforgettable experience that celebrates cancer survivors, remembers loved ones lost and mobilizes communities to fight back against cancer. For more information or to get involved visit www.relaybc.ca

Thank you to the volunteers who make Relay For Life possible, and to the communities who embrace it and have joined our fight for life!
