Description
The American Cancer Society will hold a Relay for Life POW WOW for anyone interested in becoming part of the Relay for Life Committee. The committee plans and executes the Relay for Life in Niceville. Our Relay is completely community owned and volunteer driven. There are volunteer positions for all types of interests and talents as well as time commitments. Anyone interested can contact Brittany Wade, brittany.wade@cancer.org or call 502-724-6890. Relay for Life is an organized, overnight community fundraising walk. Teams of people camp out around a track and take turns walking in honor of the fight against cancer. One in 100 people participate or volunteer in Relay For Life events in the U.S. In 2012, Niceville's Relay contributed to Okaloosa County winning the most fundraised per capita of any county in the U.S.! We are looking for volunteers from all walks of life, with all talents to join us to help plan our Relay event for 2014. Cancer is an issue that affects us all. While the American Cancer Society is making progress toward a future without cancer, only with your dedication and fundraising efforts can the world's largest fight for more birthdays continue. With your help, we aren't just fighting one type of cancer- we're fighting for every birthday threatened by every cancer in our community. Each person who shareds the Relay experience can take pride in knowing that they are working to create a world where this disease will no longer threaten our loved ones or rob anyone of another birthday. If you're a leader, if you care about our community and want to make a difference in our community, we need YOU!
