Carleton University Relay for Life is taking place overnight from Friday, March 10 to Saturday, March 11, 2023, at Carleton Fieldhouse.
Carleton University Relay for Life is a year-long campaign that encourages the Carleton community to raise funds for the Canadian Cancer Society. It culminates in an annual event where members of the Ottawa and Carleton community come together in support of those impacted by cancer and to celebrate their philanthropic achievements with food, entertainment, interactive activities and inspirational speakers. Over the past ten years, Carleton University’s Relay for Life event has managed to raise over a million dollars towards cancer research, making it one of the largest post-secondary events in Canada.
Nearly one in two Canadians will be diagnosed with cancer. Funds raised from Relay for Life support valuable services for individuals with cancer and cancer research. $100 raised covers the cost of 100 people visiting a supportive online community and $5,000 allows a cancer patient to participate in a clinical trial to test potentially life-saving new treatments.
Registration is still open! Visit the Student Experience Office website to register today.
