A team in the WALK for ALS is one or more people who gather together and raise money to support the ALS Society. The team can consist of relatives, close friends, etc.
HOW DO I SIGN MY TEAM UP?
1. Choose a team name
Be as creative as you want - “Friends of Jimmy,” “Bill's Buddies”.
2. Register your team
Don’t wait! Register your team online at www.walkforals.ca
3. Project the number of teammates you plan to recruit
Remember that anyone can walk as part of your team. For the Society to plan accordingly, make sure you tell us how many team members will be walking in your team.
4. Set fundraising goals for your team
The average walker raises $200. Strive for this average and use it when setting goals. For example, if you plan to recruit a team of 10 your goal would be at least $2,000.
5. Select a team captain. This person will:
• Register their team online at www.walkforals.ca.
• Keep a walk team roster of everyone who has signed up on the team using the team roster form or online at www.walkforals.ca.
• Communicate regularly with team members by email, phone, newsletter, etc. This will keep everyone updated on the progress of the team toward the fundraising goal.
• Bring all pledge forms and money collected to registration on WALK day.
