Thank you for serving as a Team Captain for AIDS WALK Charlotte 2021! Your support shows the community how you've stepped up for all who are living with HIV and those at risk. We are so grateful for the time and
energy you are putting into this raising money and awareness for RAIN and the Charlotte HIV community.

As a thank you for stepping up to be a Team Captain we will be mailing out your official AIDS WALK Charlotte 2021 team captain shirt (make sure we have your correct mailing address and shirt size when you register). Because of COVID-19, please allow up to two weeks to receive your t-shirt. If you have any questions please
reach out to Joyce directly at j.brooks@carolinarain.org or by calling 704-973-9819.

COMMUNICATE WITH THE TEAM REGULARLY

Touch base via email, phone or text (even hold a team meeting)

Brainstorm fundraising ideas

Inspire the team with stories/facts about RAIN

Keep the team informed of their progress - highlight a certain member’s fundraising efforts (they received a big donation or reached their goal)

BUILD AN AWESOME AND DYNAMIC TEAM

Look to your family, friends and co-workers to be on your team

Be sure to emphasize AIDS WALK Charlotte as an opportunity to make a difference in the Charlotte community and how it is helping RAIN end HIV in our community

Seek people with different connections to widen the circle of possible donors

MOTIVATE AND ENCOURAGE TEAM MEMBERS

Challenge the team

Foster a competitive spirit

Thank members throughout the process

MAKE SURE THEY ARE APPRECIATED AND RECOGNIZED

Consider ways you might recognize each team member for their contributions

Help the team share in the glory of any formal awards received the day of the walk

Remember to recognize your own contributions and keep in mind that each dollar raised is impacting someone who is living with HIV
