Relay's Impact on Childhood Cancer Awareness

The Relay community has significantly contributed to Childhood Cancer Awareness Month by raising $3 million for St. Jude since 2019. This funding supports the hospital's mission to advance childhood cancer research and treatment globally. A staggering statistic highlights that of the 400,000 children diagnosed with cancer each year, nearly half go undiagnosed, underlining the need for awareness and resources. The collaboration with St. Jude aims to improve survival rates for common pediatric cancers worldwide, with initiatives such as providing free chemotherapy medications to an estimated 120,000 children.
