LEWISTON — The American Cancer Society Relay For Life of Androscoggin County is seeking volunteers – walkers, cancer survivors, caregivers, community leaders, anyone wanting to make a difference – to organize and recruit fundraising teams, garner community support, coordinate logistics, seek refreshments and prizes, plan entertainment and lend a hand to ensure the success of the 2013 event in the area.
A volunteer committee meeting will be held at 6 p.m. Tuesday, Sept. 4, at Kaplan University Room 5, to begin the planning process for the Relay For Life event, which supports the American Cancer Society’s mission of saving lives by helping people stay well, by helping people get well, by finding cures and by fighting back against the disease.
“Relay For Life is all about our community uniting with the American Cancer Society and supporting its efforts to create a world with less cancer and more birthdays,” said Belinda Samson, Androscoggin County chairperson. “Volunteers and participants who are willing to give their time and energy to this exciting event are making a commitment to let the local community know that cancer can be defeated.”
To join as a volunteer or team participant, call the American Cancer Society at 373-3700 or visit www.RelayForLife.org/androscogginme.
