Thanks to The Weather Channel and the new national partnership with the American Cancer Society and Relay for Life. I copied the email below I got from them to announce their involvement with ACS. I am very thankful for this. Let’s finish the fight!!!
One in three people living in the United States will hear the words, “You have cancer,” in their lifetime. Since so many of us have been touched by cancer, we’re thrilled to announce that we’ve signed up as a national partner of the American Cancer Society Relay For Life event.
| So, here’s the forecast: The Weather Channel has teamed up with the American Cancer Society to help finish the fight against cancer by encouraging our viewers to sign up for a Relay For Life event in their community and to fundraise by supporting our on-air Team Captain challenge. Next week, we will launch this new partnership on our morning show. |
Like a storm, cancer has hit too many of us. It comes in and attempts to take away our loved ones, our piece of mind, and even our livelihood. But as a past Relay For Life participant, you know firsthand the power of fighting back. That’s why we’re asking you to join us today and start or join a Relay For Life team in your community. It’s not too late to get involved and fundraise for this important cause. And you wouldn’t want to miss out on some other exciting activities to support this new partnership:
- Tune in to AMHQ next week at 7 a.m. (6 a.m. Central) and encourage your family and friends to do so. We have exciting things planned that’ll include cancer survivor stories from across the country. One of those survivors is a brave 10 year old named Tori, who fundraised by participating in Relay For Life fundraising pageants in her hometown. Tune in next week to hear Tori’s story and the inspiring stories of other survivors who have been helped by the American Cancer Society.
- Download The Weather Channel app on your mobile device to stay connected to the weather for the Relay For Life event in your area.
- Check out our hosts’ Team Captain page and spread the word on your social media networks that they’re challenging each other, to see which of them can raise the most funds in support of the Relay For Life movement.
We’re all so excited to be a part of your amazing Relay For Life community, so follow us on Twitter @AMHQ to keep up with our team’s progress.
And, lastly, on behalf of cancer survivors everywhere, we thank you for the work you have done to help the American Cancer Society fulfill their vision of a world with less cancer and more birthdays. Together, we will finish this fight.
Your friends at The Weather Channel
