As cancer continues to lead causes of death among Americans, the Terrebonne Parish Relay for Life is working to end the disease as we know it– for 30 years and counting.
“Relay For Life is more than just a walk. It is a volunteer-led movement that unites communities to celebrate cancer survivors, remember loved ones lost to cancer and raise funds to improve the lives of people with cancer and their families,” reads a statement from Dean Schouest with the Terrebonne Parish Relay for Life. “Thanks to that shared passion, we are working to help the American Cancer Society advance its mission through advocacy, research and patient support in an effort to ensure that everyone has an opportunity to prevent, detect, treat and survive cancer.”
The 30th Annual American Cancer Society Relay For Life of Terrebonne Parish will be held on Saturday, April 5, 2025 at Barry P. Bonvillain Civic Center at 3:00 PM. To register, please click here.
