Each team member in Relay For Life is encouraged to raise $100-$200 or more each for their team effort. Therefore, if a team has 12 members, they should aim to raise $1,200-$2,400. Relay For Life is not a 'pledge-style' event, so you should not seek promises of money for each lap you complete.

Most teams choose to FUNdraise as a team, and then aim for a grand total rather than individual amounts. Donations are collected and banked prior to the event so that there is no need to collect money afterwards.

A Relay For Life homepage will be set up especially for your team captain to:

• Email team members with relevant information and support
• Update team members details online
• Add new team members
• See how much the team has raised on-line.

A Relay For Life homepage is also set-up for team members to FUNdraise by helping them:

• Process credit card donations on-line
• Issue receipts and send thank you messages.

Track online sponsorships from your own Relay For Life homepage - it couldn't be easier.

Donations over $5 are tax-deductible and requests for receipts will be processed by the Cancer Society.
