Team Captain Seminar 1
ACS Fundraising Goals
 a) Refocus fundraising as a priority at the
    national, Division, region, and community levels.
   b) Ensure that fundraising best practices reach every
    participant, not just captains, and explain them with
    “how to” steps to maximize success.
   c) At a minimum, every Relayer should write a
    fundraising letter.
   d) Ensure fundraising is taught to diverse
    populations, being sensitive to cultural differences.
   e) Ensure fundraising is taught to youth populations.
Fundraising Facts
 $375 million
 $24 million increase over 2005
 Seven percent increase over 2005
 Achieved $1.25 per capita income nationwide
 Online income grew from $16 million to $37 million
 $18.3 million raised from all-youth and campus events
 Averaged $82,000 per event
 $2.27 billion raised since 1985
Setting a Goal
 Fundraising goal setting is an important first step in
  developing your strategy and should include a
  communication and education plan for teams and
  individuals. Teams that are successful in fundraising
  set goals, track their performance, and celebrate their
  success.
2012 National Participant Goal
 There is no nationally recommended fee, although all
  team members are expected to raise a minimum of
  $100.
 In honor of 2012, we ask that each member
  commit to raising $212!
Why We Fundraise BEFORE the
Event
 Bank Night is a time prior to the Relay For Life event
  designated for team captains to turn in their team
  money. Having funds turned in before the event
  means that the accounting volunteers have more time
  to process the money and prepare reports.
  Also, turning the money in early prevents thousands of
  dollars from being on site the night of the event – a
  safety matter for all those in attendance, especially
  your Accounting chair.
 SO YOU CAN ENJOY THE NIGHT!

Ideas
 Ideas Handouts
 Online Resources
   Letters/Emails
   eCards
   Personal Page
   Social Networking
Letter/Email Writing
 Letter writing has proven to be the most successful
  form of Individual fundraising.
 When writing your letter to friends and family, remember
  these tips:
   Include your personal story.
   Enclose a self-addressed stamped envelope. This makes it
      easier for the donor and they will be more likely to contribute.
     List your goal and even your total from last year.
     Ask for a specific dollar amount.
     Include information about your event and the American
      Cancer Society.
     Give a deadline for their response.
My Relay Center
 Sample Letters
 eCards
 Personal Page
Be Creative! there are many other ways to fundraise
In addition to letter writing,
on your own. What you excel at may help you to come up with your
personal fundraising ideas.

Do you bake? Are you an artist? Do you make a unique product?
Here are a few easy-to-implement examples:

 Are you a talented cook? Auction off dinner for four to be cooked
  at the winner’s home.
 Keep a change jar at work on your desk throughout the year and
  ask your coworkers to contribute their spare change.
 Love pets? Offer your services as a dog walker or pet sitter.
 Ask your friends, family, neighbors, and coworkers to support
  you in your fundraising efforts by giving a donation to the
  American Cancer Society’s Relay For Life.
Donations
 Online Credit Card from Personal Page
 Mail-in Check with Donation Form
 Cash Envelope with Log
 Matching Gift Information
Fundraising Incentives
 Individual Incentives Handout
    Incentive prizes are rewards offered for reaching a
     certain level of funds raised. For example, raising $100
     earn you a T-shirt, $250 might earn you a Relay tote bag
     or umbrella, and so on. An incentive program can
     motivate a Relayer to raise that extra $50 to get to the
     next prize level.

Fundraising for Relay 101

  • 2. ACS Fundraising Goals  a) Refocus fundraising as a priority at the national, Division, region, and community levels.  b) Ensure that fundraising best practices reach every participant, not just captains, and explain them with “how to” steps to maximize success.  c) At a minimum, every Relayer should write a fundraising letter.  d) Ensure fundraising is taught to diverse populations, being sensitive to cultural differences.  e) Ensure fundraising is taught to youth populations.
  • 3. Fundraising Facts  $375 million  $24 million increase over 2005  Seven percent increase over 2005  Achieved $1.25 per capita income nationwide  Online income grew from $16 million to $37 million  $18.3 million raised from all-youth and campus events  Averaged $82,000 per event  $2.27 billion raised since 1985
  • 4. Setting a Goal  Fundraising goal setting is an important first step in developing your strategy and should include a communication and education plan for teams and individuals. Teams that are successful in fundraising set goals, track their performance, and celebrate their success.

  • 7. Why We Fundraise BEFORE the Event  Bank Night is a time prior to the Relay For Life event designated for team captains to turn in their team money. Having funds turned in before the event means that the accounting volunteers have more time to process the money and prepare reports. Also, turning the money in early prevents thousands of dollars from being on site the night of the event – a safety matter for all those in attendance, especially your Accounting chair.  SO YOU CAN ENJOY THE NIGHT!

  • 10. Letter/Email Writing  Letter writing has proven to be the most successful form of Individual fundraising.  When writing your letter to friends and family, remember these tips:  Include your personal story.  Enclose a self-addressed stamped envelope. This makes it easier for the donor and they will be more likely to contribute.  List your goal and even your total from last year.  Ask for a specific dollar amount.  Include information about your event and the American Cancer Society.  Give a deadline for their response.

  • 12. Be Creative! there are many other ways to fundraise In addition to letter writing, on your own. What you excel at may help you to come up with your personal fundraising ideas. Do you bake? Are you an artist? Do you make a unique product? Here are a few easy-to-implement examples:  Are you a talented cook? Auction off dinner for four to be cooked at the winner’s home.  Keep a change jar at work on your desk throughout the year and ask your coworkers to contribute their spare change.  Love pets? Offer your services as a dog walker or pet sitter.  Ask your friends, family, neighbors, and coworkers to support you in your fundraising efforts by giving a donation to the American Cancer Society’s Relay For Life.
  • 13. Donations  Online Credit Card from Personal Page  Mail-in Check with Donation Form  Cash Envelope with Log  Matching Gift Information

An incentive program can motivate a Relayer to raise that extra $50 to get to the next prize level.
