Volunteers Needed for the Relay For Life of Greenwich 2016-2017!

Relay For Life is the American Cancer Society's signature fundraising event and is the number one fundraiser aimed at eliminating cancer in the world. Each year, four million people at over 6,000 events in 24 countries participate in this walk to fight against this disease that takes too much from too many. Relay For Life events raise critical funds that fuel the mission of the American Cancer Society, an organization that touches the lives of so many. Relay For Life events not only raise money for cancer research, but for services that focus on improving a cancer patient's quality of life as well as cancer prevention and early detection programs.

The Relay of Life of Greenwich is looking for some passionate, energetic, movers and shakers to become a part of our Event Leadership Team! This team plans and executes the Relay For Life of Greenwich.

Event logistics, recruiting teams to join us on the track, marketing the event, planning our cancer survivor reception, creating and facilitating event ceremonies, scheduling entertainment and activities - these are just a few of the many opportunities and responsibilities taken on by our team of dedicated volunteers aimed at eliminating cancer once and for all!

It only takes a LITTLE time and a BIG heart!

Being on the Event Leadership team involves...

1. Attending planning meetings once a month

2. Spreading the word about Relay

3. Encouraging people to sign-up

4. Coming up with creative ideas

5. Planning fundraisers

6. Helping with the event day-of

7. Having FUN!

If you have a passion to end cancer, then please join us by filling out our Survey at http://www.relayforlifegreenwich.org/ (takes 5 mintes!) or contacting Grace Scinto at grace.scinto@cancer.org.

Join us in helping create a world with more birthdays and less cancer!
