We salute the American Cancer Society Relay for Life of Williamsburg, VA, held on May 16, 2014, the latest non-profit organization to receive a Go Bucket List Travel Caring and Sharing Program donation. Our gift was made at the recommendation of clients who recently returned from an 11-day vacation in Italy. Each year, more than 4 million people in over 20 countries raise much-needed funds and awareness to save lives from cancer through the Relay For Life movement. During a Relay event, participants and survivors celebrate what they’ve overcome. Participants remember people lost to the disease, and honor people who have fought or are fighting cancer.
