For A Quarter Million Campaign
This year, Hazleton’s Relay is undertaking an ambitious goal of raising $250,000. Our fantastic teams are enthusiastically embracing this campaign by saving their quarters and any spare change from now until our Relay – May 30-31, 2008. Together We Can Make A Difference one quarter at a time!
How You Can Help
Print out a label and start you own container for yourself
to save quarters and all your spare change. There are 227 days from our
first meeting, 10/16/07, to Relay, 5/30/08. If each person saves one
quarter a day in that time period, they will have collected $56.75
during that time! (Last year, 367 people were registered for a Relay
Team. That is equivalent to $20827.25! It adds up fast.) Contact your
team captain or the Relay Chairs to pick up your donations when full.
It’s that easy!
Teams & team members distribute containers with the
campaign labels to friends, coworkers, businesses, etc. (bottles with
wide mouths work well!). Remember to record where containers are left.
Containers are collected by team members when they are full or upon
request.
Forward the name and location of containers to
Mary Schriebmaier. The donor/donation information will be displayed on our
website as a donation acknowledgement or an advertisement for donor
locations.
All money collected can then be taken to
KNBT Bank and
counted using their coin machine (locations are:
http://www.knbt.com/Locations/Luzerne.html).
Teams are asked to please keep track of all funds generated from coin
collections. We would like to see if we can set a record in the
process!
Teams turn in their money like all other Relay money. All
quarters and raise by the team will be credited to their team’s
fundraising total.
