My daughter has been doing this for the past five years. To raise money for cancer research. We have lost family members to this terrible disease and it is a personal project. It is an all night walk and survivors are among the people that walk as well. You probably know first hand of someone that is affected by this. Here is her e-mail she sent out. Thanks in advance, Danny
Hello all!
I am trying some new avenues to raise money for Relay for Life. I need your super smart ideas on any organization or company you can think of that would donate funds or material for a raffle or auction. I have contacted The Chicago Bears and The Blackhawks and will contact the Wolves, Sox and Cubs. I am trying to call pizzerias and hair salons as well. I would LOVE gift certificates, memorabilia, autographs...etc. Do you have any ideas???
We are holding a fundraiser with Modern Day Romeos at Durty Nellies in Palatine on April 24th to auction and raffle off some of the prizes. Some will be held for the date of Relay on June 25th at Glenbard North High School in Carol Stream.
If any of you wish to donate directly to our team, Team Extreme, or better yet, JOIN the team, you can do that here -
