CALLING ALL RELAYERS!
How
would you like to be part of the next cancer breakthrough? How would
you feel knowing that you had a part in saving 1,000s of lives from
cancer?
That's exactly what we plan to do! From June 15th to July 6! Take Part in the Relay Research Challenge!
The Goal of the challenge is to raise enough donations to fund 3,600 hours of research. if we all work together. We CAN!
“Research
is the way to find a cure,” said Relay For Life of Second Life 2017
Chair Nuala Maracas. “By raising one hour at a time, we can turn those
single hours of research into a fully-funded grant. Won’t you join with
me in this challenge? Together we can do it!”
Imagine your Relay fundraising going to support a new researcher. Just L$5,560 will pay for one hour of research time.
From June 15 through July 6, let’s put our efforts toward raising one hour of research at a time!
Talk About It!
Tell Everyone!
Let’s Really Make A Difference and Help Finish The Fight!
You can even track our progress!
