What is Relay for Life?
It is a nationwide program supported by American Cancer Society. Around 4 million people have come forward to donate funds for the treatment of patients . The society gives awards to people who donate for their support.
The Cancer Survivors Group in Second Life was formed in 2006 to walk the first "survivor lap" at the second annual Relay for Life. Since then, they have the honor of walking the opening lap. The Event Chair is Nikki Mathieson and the Event Co-Chairs are Dwen Dooley, himself a cancer survivor, and Serina Juran. Click here for more information on History of RFL in Second Life.
