- Phone Squad: The essential task of making follow up calls to business who have been sent letters requesting donations or sponsorships must be done before the end of this term. These are NOT cold calls, but simply follow up calls to ask if the company will participate. A basic script will be provided, as well as a list of businesses to contact. You can sign up through the Sign-Up-Genius link below. https://www.signupgenius.com/go/508054BABAC29A0F58-seton3
- Pick-Up Squad: You will pick up donations from businesses in a timely manner and deliver them to campus.
- Pack-Up Squad: You will assist with wrapping wine and spirit bottles for the Wine Pull table, and also assist with transporting baskets, decorations, table center pieces and bottles to the venue on the day of the gala.
- Pretty Squad: You will assist with gathering items for decorations, and then transporting, setting up and taking down decorations on the day of the gala.
Please send an email to Dianne Fabii (fabii@seseton.org) with your name and phone number to sign up for the Pick-Up, Pack-Up and/or Pretty Squads.
