Relay For Life of Greater Foxboro Kick-Off

The American Cancer Society Relay For Life® of Greater Foxboro will officially get underway as cancer survivors, caregivers, families, schools, companies, and various organizations gather at the South Foxboro Community Center for a kick-off rally to launch their fundraising efforts for the year.  Come one, come all, and please bring a friend!  This is your opportunity to learn what’s new for 2012, pick up your team captain packet, or simply learn what Relay is all about.  We hope to see each team represented by at least one member, not necessarily the team captain.

When you join this effort, you are fighting for every birthday threatened by every cancer in every community with every step you take.  This year’s event has been scheduled for June 22-23, so please mark your calendars now.  In the past 9 years, the Greater Foxboro Relay For Life has contributed just over $1.3 million!
