If a person wants to contribute directly to American Cancer Society, send them a check. There are still some Relay for Life functions going on at The Villages, as stated above in another post.
No one is forcing you to give to any certain charity - or to any charity at all.

Huh? We get nothing out of the research supported by the American Cancer Society? A rather short sided view, no?
