Need-To-Know Basics
Cash & Checks: Participants may also make donations with cash or checks. Please follow these instructions carefully to collect their cash/check donations properly.
1. Thank the participant for their generous donation.
2. Before taking the cash or check, you must complete the “Event Income Form.” The ZERO Staff at the event will provide you with this form before registration and event check-in opening. 3. Ask the donating participant for their name and mailing address. It is important to record this information carefully and accurately. 4. Once you have completed the necessary information, you may collect the donation and place it in the manila envelope provided for donation collection. 5. Let the participants know they will receive a letter acknowledging their donation a few weeks after the event and that they should keep that letter for tax purposes. If they do not receive a letter, they can obtain a receipt by emailing races@zerocancer.org. 6. Record the total donation amount and indicate the team/participant to credit it to (if applicable). 7. Thank the donor again for their donation and for supporting our mission to end prostate cancer.
*All checks should be made payable to ZERO Prostate Cancer. In the memo line, please be sure the participant indicates the city name of the Run/Walk event and the name of the team or individual whose fundraising efforts it supports (if applicable).
