Sponsorship opportunities are available for companies and organizations interested in supporting our local community impacted by cancer in the Santa Clarita Valley.
SANTA CLARITA, FEBRUARY 20 – Although the American Cancer Society Relay For Life of Santa Clarita Valley is not until May 4, work is beginning now to build the celebration that will bring together passionate supporters who embody the American Cancer Society mission to end cancer as we know it, for everyone, and your support as a sponsor is vital.
Relay For Life of Santa Clarita Valley will host a dinner event on the evening of March 16 at Elks Lodge to honor our local cancer survivors and their caregivers with sponsorship opportunities still available. To ensure a spot, those interested in attending need to register as a survivor at SCVRelay.org, and then email survivors@scvrelay.org to sign up for the dinner with the opportunity to have their caregiver as their guest. People interested in sponsoring can reach out to abby.smith@cancer.org.
In 2024, for the first time, more than 2 million new cancer cases will be diagnosed in the United States and more than 600,000 Americans will die from cancer. Being there for anyone impacted by cancer is year-round work, and we’re grateful for our volunteers, participants, partners, and sponsors who helped us raise $281,675 in 2023 making it the top 20 Relay For Life event across the nation. In 2024, Relay For Life of Santa Clarita Valley aims to raise $300,000 to improve the lives of people with cancer and their families through advocacy, research, and patient support, to ensure everyone has an opportunity to prevent, detect, treat, and survive cancer.
