2021 National Brain Tumor Ride Incentives

 

National Brain Tumor Society event participants are working hard to raise funds– and we appreciate everything you do in the fight against brain tumors. Each fundraising challenge is offered to help maximize your individual and team fundraising efforts toward reaching your goals – plus a little friendly competition never hurt! The fundraising prizes are our way of saying “THANK YOU!”

Need help with fundraising ideas? For letters, tips and tricks of the trade, please reach out to us at events@braintumor.org.

Team Fundraising Prize:

Every team that raises $5,000 by 4/16 will qualify for a Team Spirit Kit 
All teams that collectively raise $5,000 or more by 4/16, will be mailed a Team Spirit Kit for use during their personal celebration of the 2021 virtual event. The kit will contain many of the items you would normally see on event day; balloons, a team banner, NBTS tattoos, among other goodies!  We ask that you document your team spirit in photos and videos and share them to social media using the hashtags, #NBTSWalk2021 #NBTSRace2021 #NBTSRide2021. We cannot be together in person, but this community is always together in spirit! 
*Please note, NBTS is not suggesting that your team gather to commemorate the 2021 event. Please follow CDC guidelines and adhere to safe gathering practices. 

Butterfly Release Every team that raises $10,000 or more by April 4, 2021 is eligible to receive an at-home butterfly release!

Butterflies will be shipped directly to the team captain or a person of your team’s choosing – may we suggest your team honoree?
