About this Event

Relay for Life (RFL) is a global fundraising initiative that unites communities in the fight against cancer.

Originating from a 24-hour relay event, RFL involves teams of participants who take turns walking or running around a designated track or path.

The event represents the ongoing battle against cancer, with participants celebrating survivors, remembering those who have lost their lives to the disease, and raising funds for research, education, and patient support.

Typically, RFL events feature a variety of activities, entertainment, and ceremonies, including the poignant Luminaria Ceremony, where candles are lit in memory of loved ones.

The collaborative spirit of RFL fosters unity and hope, empowering communities to take collective action against cancer.

Through these events, participants not only provide financial support for cancer-related causes but also raise awareness and offer emotional support to those affected by the disease.

In Malaysia, the National Cancer Society Malaysia (NCSM) has played a key role in organising Relay for Life (RFL) events, bringing the essence of this global initiative to local communities.

Since its introduction in Malaysia, RFL has gained substantial momentum, with numerous events held across the nation to raise funds and awareness for cancer-related causes.

NCSM’s RFL events typically include a survivors' lap, caregiver recognition, and the heartfelt Luminaria Ceremony, offering a platform for emotional support and solidarity among participants.

These events not only generate vital funds for cancer research, treatment, and support services but also cultivate a strong sense of community.

By participating in RFL, Malaysians from all walks of life come together to honour cancer survivors, remember those who have passed, and continue the fight against the disease.

NCSM's efforts in organising RFL events highlight the critical role of community involvement in the national fight against cancer.

R-Day Fun Run: The event kicks off early in the morning with all participants joining the R-Day Fun Run, the first event of the day.

i) Survivors Step Up for Cancer Challenge: A step challenge open to survivors and caregivers, offering exciting prizes for those who take part in this challenge.

ii) R-Day Family Treasure Hunt: A unique treasure hunt for families or teams, where two children and two adults work together to complete tasks and follow clues that lead to the grand prize.

iii) Relay Race: Teams of four individuals will compete in a thrilling, adrenaline-filled race, passing the relay baton from one person to another as they race towards the finish line to become the Relay Race champions and win exclusive prizes.

In addition to these signature events, R-Day will feature carnival games, booths, exciting challenges, contests, and loads of fun for everyone!
