American Cancer Society Relay For Life® of South Philadelphia

Join the American Cancer Society for Relay for Life at Franklin D. Roosevelt Park at 20th and Pattison Avenue in Philadelphia. Relay For Life of South Philadelphia is a 12-hour fundraising event to benefit the American Cancer Society. The event begins with a Cancer Survivors Lap celebrating those who have survived cancer or who are currently battling cancer. Later in the evening, the Luminaria Ceremony remembers those who have experienced cancer by lining the track with luminaria marked with the names of those who survived and those who lost their battle with cancer. Games, music, themed laps, contests, live music and entertainment will encourage people all day long! Teams are made up of five to 15 people, and at least one member of each team is walking or running the track at all times.
