Relay For Life (RFL) is a global movement founded in May 1985 by American Cancer Society in Tacoma, Washington. Since then, it has grown into a worldwide phenomenon, raising about US$5 billion to fight cancer. Close to 4 million participants take part in RFL across the globe annually, making it one of the world's largest fundraisers.
Singapore is the 25th member country to organise RFL through the adoption of the movement by Singapore Cancer Society, and partnership with Tamarind Health. Singapore Cancer Society (SCS) aims to rally the local community to celebrate the lives of those who battled cancer, remember loved ones lost, and fight back against a disease that has taken many lives. It is also a platform for cancer survivors, caregivers, and volunteers to be recognised, supported and connected via a strong support system.
With a target outreach of 6,000 participants, this community event also seeks to raise S$1,300,000 to fund various SCS programmes and services which aims to reduce cancer incidence, increase survivor rates, improve quality of life, and rally greater community action.
To accomplish the objectives of Celebrate, Remember and Fight Back, RFL has three special segments during the event to express the importance of cancer journey.The 100KM Challenge is a non-competitive, overnight walk/run around the relay track at the Singapore National Stadium, taking place from 14 to 15 March 2026. Join us as we journey through the three phases of Relay For Life — where we CELEBRATE our cancer warriors, REMEMBER our loved ones lost, and FIGHT BACK against the disease together as one united community.
