Dear
Friends
,This coming weekend is RELAY FOR LIFE 24hr WALK.
Lets support this worthy cause anyone joining my team......
What Makes Relay for Life Different Than Other Cancer Walks?
All of the cancer walks/runs are excellent ways to raise money and awareness about cancer. Relay for Life embraces all types of cancer, not just one single type.
It is also a great fundraiser for those who cannot walk or run several miles. In Relay for Life, it is only required that one person from each team be on the track at all times. This allows for breaks for team members. People who rely on wheelchairs are also welcome to "walk" laps in most events. It is recommended that you be able to walk for 30 minutes at a time. You can see that Relay for Life is a very inclusive fundraiser that aims for not only financial donation, but also community involvement.

Luminaries are also a signature addition to Relay Life for Light events. Special bags that contain a white candle line the track, creating a lighted pathway for walkers. You can honor a loved one who has died of cancer by sponsoring a luminary at events. All events have a Luminary Ceremony, where the candles are lit and those who lost their battle to cancer are memorialized.2PM, 14th June TO 2PM, 15th June
VENUE: THE NYAYO NATIONAL STADIUM, NAIROBI. 24 HRS ON THE RELAY, CREATING AWARENESS AND EING IN SOLIDARITY WITH PATIENTS.
