At The Rob Branham Foundation we’re planning our annual dog event (to be held on Saturday, October 1) - known as Raise a Paw Against Leukemia (formerly Woofstock) - and are looking for Registration Helpers for the event. Raise a Paw has 3 components to it: (1) a dog walk with 'challenge stations’ throughout it that owners can opt to have their dogs participate in; (2) dog fund-raising, in which dog owners can have their dogs get pledges (online crowdfunding) for their participation in any parts of the event (or just raise funds because they want to), and (3) a pet-related fair, with vendors and dog adoption opportunities. Dogs that get pledges are automatically entered into drawings for prizes.
On the day of the event, we need 6-8 people to help with registration check-in between the hours of 9:30 AM and 2 PM. Helpers need to commit to a shift of at least 1 hour, but can commit to a longer shift if they choose. Registration helpers need to be comfortable using an iPad or computer, and will be asked to meet with the Registration Manager before the event to learn how to use the registration system for check-in. Smiling and cheerful registration helpers are appreciated!

Mission Statement
The Rob Branham Foundation is a small, non-profit organization dedicated to providing support and services to patients and families fighting leukemia and other blood cancers. . Our goal is to help them cope with the 'extraneous’ stresses more easily, so they can focus their attention on the patient’s treatment and healing.
Description
The Rob Branham Foundation provides support to families in 3 primary ways:
1. informal emotional and informational support to families;
2. financial assistance to families who have seen a significant decrease in income due to dealing with a blood cancer, and who are facing severe financial crisis; and
3. assistance and consultation with fund-raising done by the family and/or friends.
Fund-raising is a major emphasis of the Foundation's work in supporting families.
