Relay For Life
Description:
Relay For Life is an organization that holds an event once a year to raise money to give to the American Cancer Society to help those affected with cancer. The event is open to all Carnegie Mellon students and Pittsburgh residents. On the day of the event, teams of 8-15 people take turns walking around a track for 24 straight hours. While waiting their turn on the track, team's camp out at the site and enjoy themselves. All money raised supports cancer research, local cancer patient services and public education. We had great success this year with several students and a good deal of members of the community attending our event and helping us raise over $50,000!

We want to make sure that all human life is cherished from conception to natural death. We believe that abortions only devalue human life in the eyes of society and we desire to respectfully alter the perception in the world and on our campus that abortion is a woman￢ﾀﾙs only choice.
