Purpose
At UCSD, Tritons Against Cancer is dedicated to uniting students, faculty, and the broader Triton community in the fight against cancer through advocacy, education, and fundraising. Our mission is to foster a campus culture of awareness and proactive engagement, empowering the American Cancer Society to contribute to groundbreaking cancer research and support services. Central to our efforts is the annual Relay for Life event, a powerful, community-driven initiative where participants join together to celebrate survivors, remember loved ones lost, and fight back against cancer. Through Relay for Life, we create an inspiring and supportive environment where individuals of all backgrounds can make a meaningful impact. By organizing this event and other related activities, we aim to raise vital funds for cancer research, promote cancer prevention strategies, and support those affected by the disease. Our ultimate goal is to build a future where cancer is no longer a threat but a challenge we have overcome together. Through our commitment, we seek to inspire hope, drive change, and leave a lasting legacy of compassion and action in the battle against cancer.
