American Cancer Society Relay For Life of Mahopac Needs Cancer Fighting Teams

Event celebrates those touched by cancer, remembers loved ones lost, and takes action to fight

back for lifesaving change


The American Cancer Society (ACS) Relay For Life of Mahopac needs teams and volunteers passionate about the fight against cancer for its annual event on Saturday, June 4, 2022, at Mahopac High School.

Volunteers are the heart and soul of ACS and are critical to our success at every level. By joining the Relay For Life movement as a Relay team or participant, you help us save lives, celebrate lives, and lead the fight for a world without cancer starting right here in your community.

In 2021, we raised over $103,000 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 TRACK and back at Mahopac High School to 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 or as an
individual participant! It is as simple as going to our event’s website, relayforlife.org/mahopacny,
and clicking “Sign Up”! Then invite 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!

There are SO many ways to join the Relay For Life movement include:

  • Invite a cancer survivor to be celebrated, or if you’re a survivor, join us!
  • Become a volunteer on our event planning committee or for the day of our event
  • Make a donation
  • Become a sponsor
  • Host a fundraiser
