Dealing with Cash
Written by Chris Gonzalez
If you are a team captain, there is a good chance that you will be dealing with cash donations at some point during the relay. Either because your tean members collected in cash or someone is donating directly to you with cash. The number one thing to remember is to keep your Donation Envelope handy. This will be part of your relay kit that you get from your team development volunteer. If you haven't gotten one plase send an email ro This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.

The envelope is really the whole keep to this, it keeps track of all the necessary information that you need to collect and it wraps all the cash in one place. We also offer cash pouchs if you thing you might need an added layer of protection from wear and tear.
Cash donations are usually collected at several times before Relay. Look on the calendar for a Bank Night. They are usually held at the same place your committee / captains meetings are at.
The great thing about cash donations is they are tracked all the way through till relay. Use it as a tool to make sure you're teams fundraising goals are on track.
