IN TRAINING FOR THESE EVENTS:

The goal of Team In Training is to increase funding to support the Society’s mission while promoting fitness and healthy life-styles. The mission of The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society is to cure leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin’s disease, and Myeloma- and improve the lives of patients and their families.

Fundraising Goal

The fundraising goal for each participant is established based on the event they choose. The Society utilizes discounts and group rates to keep costs as low as possible. The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society provides all participants with entry into the event, and for non local events air, and lodging. Funds raised over the minimum are greatly appreciated and help us to accomplish our mission. Additional funds over the minimum may not be carried over to another event.

Recommitment dates and amounts allow us to confirm your commitment to the team and to raising the minimum set for your event. This is necessary to complete travel and event arrangements.

On the Recommitment Date we will ask you to submit the signed “Recommitment Form”, confirming your commitment to the team and to raising the Minimum Fundraising Goal set for your event. At this time we ask that you have in a set amount and that you secure your position on the team with a credit card, which will be charged to bring you up to the correct amount if necessary.

On the Final fundraising deadline -- we ask that you have completed your fundraising up to the Minimum Fundraising Goal. We will charge your card to bring you up to that point if necessary. Funds charged will be reimbursed at your request providing you fundraise the additional funds within approximately one month after the Fundraising deadline.

Therefore, at Recommitment you acknowledge that you will donate the difference between what you have raised and the Minimum Fundraising Goal by the due date. Your credit card will be charged if you have not reached the Minimum Fundraising Goal on the due date. Should you decide not to recommit, you will need to drop off of the team at this time knowing that the funds you raised will go toward the Society’s programs of research and patient services.
