Please join the fight against cancer by making a donation to the American Cancer Society Relay For Life of Greater Cranberry Township.

Money raised supports American Cancer Society efforts such as Hope Lodge, where cancer patients and caregivers can find comfort during medical treatments.

“American Cancer Society having this Hope Lodge for a family that has to go through something as traumatic as we are — I can’t describe it… They’ve saved us so much money and so much stress.” — Eileen Fauteux & Her Mother

In addition, you may consider purchasing a luminaria in honor or memory of a loved one who has faced cancer.

I’d like to invite you to a great community celebration to help support programs and research in our effort to fight cancer.

The American Cancer Society Relay For Life of Greater Cranberry Township is planned for July 22 at North Boundary Park in Cranberry. Kickoff is at 10 a.m., but listed below are highlights for when you might want to stop by!
