2007    National Outreach Project

Did you know that cancer will touch one in three people in your lifetime?

To address this concern, FCCLA is proud to continue its collaboration with the American Cancer Society and its Relay for Life signature event again as this year.  One of the most effective ways you can help in the fight against cancer is to participate in your local Relay For Life.  Relay For Life represents the hope that those lost to cancer will never be forgotten, that those who face cancer will be supported, and that one day cancer will be eliminated. The power of Relay is that it allows a community to grieve for those lost to cancer and to celebrate the lives of those who survived.  There is peace of mind knowing that together communities can face the challenges ahead.  For more information check out the FCCLA web site and click on 2007 National Outreach Project.

What is Relay?

Relay for Life is a fun-filled overnight event designed to celebrate survivorship and raise money for research and programs of the American Cancer Society.  Relay For Life is the American Cancer Society's signature activity.  Relays are an overnight event, up to 24 hours in length.  Relay For Life brings together millions of people to raise money and awareness to help prevent cancer, save lives, and diminish suffering from the disease.
