The American Cancer Society serves cancer patients in the North Shore area. We offer both cancer prevention and detection programs, and a recovery program for breast cancer patients. We provide volunteer transportation for cancer patients undergoing chemo and radiation appointments. We also sponsor fund raising activities including Relay for Life, Tour of the North Shore Bicycle Ride, and several golf tournaments. A community wide event held at Niles West High School to the fight the good fight against cancer, celebrate survivors, and remember those who lost their battle against the disease.
Teams campout overnight, taking turns around the track, and participate in fun activities.
Relay for Life is the largest fund raising event in the country, taking place across the United States. Take a tour of the North Shore's beautiful suburbs. All routes start and end at The Doubletree Hotel on Skokie Boulevard. Bring a friend. Bring your family.
