 PUMC Relay for Life - American Cancer Society Fundraiser

     
 

Results of our 2010 Relay Campaign:


 

 

About PUMC Relay For Life
The PUMC Relay For Life efforts began as an offshoot of the Missions Committee. In 2009, the goal of $2000 was exceeded when almost $3000 was raised for the fight against cancer.

This year, our goal is $2500 and we are on our way after our Dollars for Donuts campaign kicked off the 2010 fundraising efforts.

Donations
You can give a check to any team member or the church office made out to American Cancer Society.

Online Donations
You can also donate to the Perry UMC team and/or order Luminarias at our team's Relay for Life Donation page.

Luminarias

Every Candle has a Name
…There’s a name of the ones who are still here.
There’s a name of those gone we still hold dear.
There’s a name, each one shining in the flames.
And we know, that every candle has a name.
-John W. Storey

Please consider honoring your friends and family who have battled cancer by purchasing a Luminaria (a paper bag filled with sand and a candle) to be displayed at the 2010 Relay For Life. These candles also serve as symbols of hope to us as we continue to work for a cure for the disease that claims so many lives. $5 minimum donation (more is ok!) per name.

Flamingo Flocking
For a minimum donation of $25 (more is ok!) you can inflict some pink plastic tackiness on the yards of friends and neighbors! See the photo album of past flamingo flockings!

The "Shepherd of the Flock" will plant a flock of 25 flamingos and pick them up a day or two later. The victim has the option, for a donation, to move them on to a new victim! This is our major fundraising activity.

Flocking Request Form [PDF]
Turn in completed form with donation to the church office.

Flocking Protection Insurance
Afraid of "Revenge of the Flamingos?" For a minimum donation of $30 (more is ok!) you can get flamingo flocking protection insurance! Get your insurance early, as we can't accept an insurance request if your house is already on the list to be flocked!
