Agency - American Cancer Society: Scott County Relay For Life

The American Cancer Society is a nationwide, community-based voluntary health organization dedicated to eliminating cancer as a major health problem. Headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, the American Cancer Society has 12 chartered Divisions, more than 900 local offices nationwide, and a presence in more than 5,100 communities.

Description:
The American Cancer Society’s Relay For Life is a fun, family oriented, community-based event to Celebrate, Remember and Fight Back. We celebrate the lives of people who have battled cancer. The strength of survivors inspires others to continue their fight. We Remember loves ones lost to the disease. At Relay, people who have walked alongside others battling cancer can grieve and find healing. We Fight Back. We Relay because we have been touched by cancer and desperately want to put an end to the disease.
