TAKE ACTION!
EVERYONE HAS THEIR
own reasons for doing Relay For
Life: a relative with cancer, a special patient or a friend.
Why do we do the Relay For Life event? To honor those
fighting cancer and the survivors and to remember those
who have lost the fight!
We raise money for the American Cancer Society
(ACS) with the knowledge that someday there will be a
cure for cancer. The Samaritan Relay For Life team will
be relaying for the 27th year and couldn’t do it without
your encouragement. Our team would like to say thank
you to everyone for their continued support. There is no
finish line until there is a cure!
Our Samaritan Healthcare Relay For Life Team re-
ceived the top team award at the Moses Lake Relay For
Life event. We raised $6,508, and the event itself raised
$51,000 for the ACS.
If you would like to know more about Relay For Life,
please contact Jennifer Clark at
793-9672
or email
