Caring Community


Emily Jones will again be participating in Mt. Olive’s Relay for Life this year on June 9th and 10th. Relay For Life is the signature fundraiser for the American Cancer Society at which teams of people camp out at a local high school, park, or fairground and take turns walking or running around a track or path. Each team is asked to have a representative on the track at all times during the event. Relays are an overnight event based on the idea that cancer never sleeps.

Relay For Life encourages people to:
• Celebrate the lives of those who have battled cancer.
• Remember loved ones lost to the disease.
• Fight back to put an end to the disease.

If you are interested making a donation , talk to Emily Jones or go to: http://main.acsevents.org/site/TR?px=6457997&pg=personal&fr_id=36663&fl=en_US&et=sdGKYkf70dzy5T4cgbTWPQ&s_tafId=997320.
