What is Relay 4 Life:
Relay For Life is an event WCI holds to raise money and awareness for the Canadian Cancer Society. This event is held in the WCI field from 4-10pm on Friday MAY 22nd. Activities and small events will be ongoing throughout the evening and teams will walk around the track to represent our fight against cancer. Each person is required to raise $100 and all proceeds will go to the Canadian Cancer Society.

Why We Relay:
Everyone has been impacted by cancer at least once in their life, whether that’s through a family member, friends, yourself, or just people in our community. Cancer is all around us throughout the world and we relay to show our support for all those suffering with cancer. We relay for those who can’t, we relay to bring awareness, we relay to influence change.
Goals:
- 450 Student Sign Ups (With an Estimated 45 Teams – 10 People Per Team)
- Raise $45,000 for the Canadian Cancer Society (Each Student Will Raise $100 Min)
