In the heart of the Berkshires, where tradition and community intertwine, the Relay for Life of Berkshire County stands as a testament to our collective resolve against cancer. This annual event, deeply rooted in our local heritage, brings together neighbors, friends, and families in a unified effort to support the American Cancer Society’s mission of eliminating cancer as a major health concern.

A Legacy of Unity and Hope

Relay For Life is more than a fundraiser; it is a cherished tradition that embodies the spirit of our community. Participants form teams and take turns walking or running around a track, symbolizing the ongoing fight against cancer. The event honors survivors, remembers those we’ve lost, and provides a platform for caregivers and supporters to rally together.
