Hi.
Does anyone have a pdf or online brochure for this year's team member incentive prizes? I would like to be able to email it to my team captains...
Thanks for your help!

Incentive Prizes Are Also A Great Way To Promote Relay
Incentive prizes do help raise more dollars but they also help raise awareness of Relay For Life and the mission of the American Cancer Society. Think about it, if you wear that great RFL Jacket you've gotten as an incentive prize and someone sees you wearing it at the grocery store, you get to tell them why you are involved with the Relay For Life. You could recruit a new team or invite a new survivor! Believe me, the reward to those raising money and the exposure for the ACS and Relay is so worth the minimal cost of the prize itself.
Be proud of your involvement and accomplishments, wear or show off your Relay items and tell the world why you Relay!
Not every incentive program is the same
Incentives
I am curious how many relays across the nation use the incentive prizes? Do you think it makes participants work harder at getting donations? Do any of you feel guilty for receiving incentives? Our staff and volunteers never fail to remind us that it comes from the money we raise for our Relay. I think if it helps to raise more, than it should be okay. Any thoughts?
Incentives
I think the majority of events use an incentive program. I believe it has been shown through data that incentive programs do increase the fundaising averages of teams and individuals. Many teams pool their money together to get one big incentive prize and then raffle it for a fundraiser. No one should feel guilty about taking their incentive prize. It's a thank you for a job well done!
