Each year, across the nation, one event brings together entire communities to take part in the fight against cancer. The American Cancer Society's Relay For Life is a time and place where people come to celebrate those who have survived cancer, remember those we've lost, and fight back against a disease that touches too many lives.

Won't you gather together a group of up to 15 family, friends, and colleagues and be a part of the Relay this year? You'll join teams from across San Jose on May 15 & 16, 2010, as they raise money for the American Cancer Society, walk the track at Willow Glen High School, play games, listen to live music, camp-out, and experience the night-time candle-led walk and reading of names of local cancer Survivors and those that have lost their lives to the disease.

Your involvement will help the American Cancer Society work toward its mission of eliminating cancer as a major health issue and will support much-needed services in your community. Thanks in part to the donations from Relay For Life and other events, the Society is saving lives, helping those touched by cancer, and empowering people to fight this disease all over the world.
