Fundraising part 1
Per the Relay for Life agreement, found on its website:"The American Cancer Society provides Relay For Life® participant ("Relay participant") Web pages as a service. All donations received through the Relay participant pages are contributions for which no goods and services have been provided. Therefore, Relay participant pages shall not contain any language which suggests that merchandise will be provided in exchange for their contribution. Relay participants are expressly prohibited from offering merchandise sales, prizes, raffles, giveaways, lotteries, contests, tournaments, lucky draws, or any games of chance on their Relay participant pages either as an outright token action or as an inducement to solicit donations."
That may throw a wrench in ... well almost all of my ideas actually. They do have a page set up for fundraising ideas here.
What's confusing is, the fundraising idea page lists raffles, etc as a fundraising idea. My thought is that the language in the agreement refers ONLY to our Relay for Life website, like we can't sell stuff off of it in exchange for donations, but they don't care what we do outside our personal Relay for Life website.
I think the first, and most basic thing to do is setting up donation jars in the lunchrooms and at strategic locations throughout campus. Can I get volunteers to set up and monitor jars? Please comment below or email me- I will see about getting some jars asap!
