Get involved in your community!
It time to get involved in your own community and make a difference in the fight against cancer!
Relay For Life is the American Cancer Society's signature activity, and it occurs in 55 differenct communities here in Metro-Detroit. It offers everyone in a community an opportunity to participate in the fight against cancer. Teams of people camp out at a local high school, park, or fairground and take turns walking or running around a track or path. Each team is asked to have a representative on the track at all times during the event. Relays are an overnight event, where teams of people from all walks of life have fun while raising much-needed funds to fight cancer and raise awareness of cancer prevention and treatment.
Relay For Life is a life-changing event that brings together more than 3.5 million people to:
- Celebrate the lives of those who have battled cancer. The strength of survivors inspires others to continue to fight.
- Remember loved ones lost to the disease. At Relay, people who have walked alongside people battling cancer can grieve and find healing.
- Fight Back. We Relay because we have been touched by cancer and desperately want to put an end to the disease.
There is not a required amount of money to raise in order to participate in Relay For Life. The American Cancer Society's recommendation is for each participant to set a personal goal to raise $100. If you raise more, that's even better. If you do not raise $100, you are still welcome to participate. We're glad to have you.

This is SO inspirational! They are having a fund raiser for this teacher tonight. Check out his web site and see the updates. He is the nicest guy. He put in our stone porch a few summers ago, and will always go the extra mile. All his students respect him. He's a real tribute to our community and a real hero to the kids!
