- A group opportunity. Invite your friends.
Relay For Life is the American Cancer Society’s signature fundraising activity. It is an overnight, team event where each community comes together for one day and one night to honor cancer survivors and their caregivers, to remember those we have lost, and to fight back against a disease that takes too much from too many. Teams of approximately 8-15 people commit to raising $100 each and take turns walking or running relay-style for 24 hours. We are currently seeking volunteer to help with the planning and implementation of our 2014 event in Redwood City.
Relay For Life of Redwood City needs Volunteers to Help with Team Recognition. Responsibilities include:
- · Retain and recruit committee volunteers to help with team recognition.
- · Collaborate with Chair to plan and set goals for team recognition.
- · Employ year round strategies to ensure that all team captains and team members know how much they are appreciated.
- · Be an expert on team recognition materials/resources and programs.
