Relay For Life (RFL) is a global movement, led by American Cancer Society (ACS) to honour cancer survivors, remember loved ones lost, and fight back against a disease that has already taken too much.

An unique opportunity for cancer survivors and caregivers to be recognized, supported and connected via a strong support system.

We are the 25th member country to bring and host this event in Singapore.

RFL is an inspiring overnight community event that offers everyone in a community an opportunity to participate in the fight against cancer. People from all walks of life will walk or run around a track of path at their own pace during the event.

Taking place for the first time in Singapore, RFL gives everyone a chance to celebrate cancer survivors and carers; remember loved ones lost to cancer; and fight back by raising awareness and funds to support work of the Singapore Cancer Society. RFL is for people of all ages and fitness levels. Anyone can take part!
