Relay For Life of Brewster Needs Teams And Volunteers

BREWSTER, NY — The American Cancer Society Relay For Life of Brewster needs teams and volunteers for its annual event this spring. Plus, Relay Madness has started, and you could help get Brewster onto the leaderboard in the Lower Hudson Valley.

The American Cancer Society says:

By joining the Relay For Life movement, volunteers help us save lives, celebrate lives, and lead the fight for a world without cancer.

In 2021, we raised over $55,000 through our Relay For Life event to help our ACS to restore and reenergize the programs, resources, and events that are the foundation of who we are. We reopened our Hope Lodge® program in all markets this year, offering lodging to people facing cancer and their caregivers. We continued our investment in a cancer-free future with $395 million in research grants to find new ways to prevent, find, and treat cancer, as well as help improve the quality of life for people living with cancer.

As we look to 2022, we are excited to be BACK ON THE TRACK at Brewster High School and raise even more to support the lifesaving mission of your American Cancer Society!

We invite you to join the movement to end cancer and sign up a Relay For Life team! It is as simple as going to our event’s website (relayforlife.org/brewsterny), clicking, “Sign Up”, then inviting friends and family to join you to raise funds and come celebrate our survivors, remember loved one lost, fight back together and walk with us on June 4!

Ways to join the Relay For Life movement include:

• Become a volunteer on our event planning committee
• Make a donation
• Invite a cancer survivor to be celebrated. Or if you’re a survivor, join us!
• Become a sponsor
