A few SLUDM updates for THIS SATURDAY!
Thank you so much for registering for SLU’s Dance Marathon! We are so excited and have worked hard to make this a success! As Dance Marathon is approaching on November 19, we wanted to send out a reminder about fundraising!
While we know that a $75 goal can seem like a lot of money, it is easy once you start asking family members and friends! If raising the $75 is not feasible, you have the option of sending out 7 emails to family and friends asking them for donations. Donor drive makes sending e-mails really easy & we’ve attached a “how-to” document with a sample letter included so you can get out your emails all in one click!
Also, as an incentive - for every $20 raised between today and next Wednesday the 16th, your name will be entered into a drawing for 3 Pappy’s gift cards! The winners will be announced next Wednesday, November 16th after our Bank Night which will be held in Xavier Room 22 from 4:30-6:30 pm. This bank night is a great opportunity to drop off any checks or cash that you’ve received for donations so we can count those towards your chance at winning & to your on-line total!
Another great way to help with fundraising is by coming to our profit shares next week! We’ll be hosting profit shares at Qudoba from 5-8 p.m on Monday, 14th and Vito’s from 5-10 pm at Vito’s on Tuesday, 15th! You can stop by the BSC between 9 a.m.-4 p.m Monday to pick up a flyer that will give us a dollar of every purchase at Qdoba and just mention SLUDM at Vitos on Thursday!!
ALSO, before you put those Halloween costumes away for good – Don’t forget we are having themed hours throughout the 12 hours of Dance Marathon.
