Relay For Life participants and donors remember loved ones lost to cancer and honor those battling the disease by dedicating luminaria bags.

Luminaria bags are transformed and illuminated after dark at every local Relay For Life event. Each luminaria is personalized with a name, photo, message or drawing in memory or honor of a friend or loved one who has been affected by cancer. Luminaria can also be dedicated in support of a Relay participant. Each luminaria candle represents a person. They are our mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers, aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, friends, coworkers, and so many others.

At this mini Luminaria event, students have the possibility to come out and remember why they Relay. The Luminaria bags will be lit to give them the reminder.
