JJC Relay for Life Kick-Off: Check back for 2008 dates!
ACS Relay For Life: Check back for 2009 dates!
Purpose
The All College Relay for Life is a community gathering where everyone can participate
in the fight against cancer. Teams of people camp out and take turns walking or
running around the track. Each team is asked to have a representative on the track
at all times during the event—because cancer never sleeps. Relays are overnight
event! Relay for Life brings together millions of people to raise money to help
prevent cancer, save lives, and diminish suffering from the disease. While you’re
raising much needed funds, you’ll also be raising awareness of cancer prevention.
How is JJC Involved?
JJC has been involved for two consecutive years. The college is involved with the
planning of the event and many teams participate. JJC has raised over $25,000 for
American Cancer Society.
