Does all of the money raised throughout the year go directly to the American Cancer Society?
YES! Every penny goes directly to the American Cancer Society. Each year Relay For Life raises about $450 million that funds anything from cancer research to patient aide. You can visit http://uga.edu/relay/whereitgoes for more specific information on the programs and services that the American Cancer Society offers. The American Cancer Society also provides Cancer Information Services, Patient Support, Hope Lodge for Patients undergoing Treatment, Congressional Lobbying, and many more initiatives.
