The process of scheduling a successful Cancer Awareness Campaign can seem intimidating.
- Identify your goal, first let yourself know for what reason you need to process a campaign
- Set a date,this may seem basic, but weather, commute schedules, school holidays, competing events and several different factors can make a major difference in determining the best date and time of day for your event
- Choose a location, location, which is easy to find and reach is generally the best location. To find the best location, know who you are trying to reach.
- Build a volunteer base, either it’s just a pair of close friends or a team of community members, this is a time that needs two heads which are better than one, and many hands make light work.
- Comprise the community, reach out to the businesses/organizations in your community in seeking support for your cancer awareness campaign efforts.
- Offer something to your visitors, the most important thing you will be offering your guests is information and an opportunity to do good.
- Thank your volunteers, do not forget to thank the volunteers/members of the community who facilitated to make your cancer awareness campaign successful which also includes members of your community members who helped out, your planning team, and any corporate sponsors who supported your work.
