​HOST A FUNDRAISING AND AWARENESS EVENT

We will assist you when possible, as schedules and timing permits, by providing materials, volunteer speakers and answering any questions you may have.

GET READY FOR EVENT DAY
Come up with a team meeting place and time and be sure to let your team know prior to event day. Feel free to bring lawn chairs, picnic blankets to enjoy breakfast together and signs to show your team spirit.
