We would love for you to join us in our fight against cancer at Relay for Life of Polk County! Our annual event will be held this Friday, May 2 at Polk County Middle School.
Opening ceremonies will begin at 6 p.m. The night will be full of music, games, raffles, food and raising money as a community to fight cancer. The Luminaria Ceremony will begin at dark. You may still purchase a luminaria bag in memory or honor of a loved the night of the event.
As the nation’s largest non-governmental investor in cancer research, contributing about $3.4 billion, we turn what we know about cancer into what we do. As a result, more than 11 million people in America who have had cancer and countless more who have avoided it will be celebrating birthdays this year.
To learn more about us or to get help, call us anytime, day or night, at 1-800-227-2345 or visit cancer.org.
