Bank Day
Turn in your final check and cash donations BEFORE THE WALK and pick up the T-shirts and Champions For Cures wristbands for yourself and your teammates (if applicable). One less thing to think about on Walkday! Bank Days are held for each Walksite approx. 3-5 days prior to the Walk. More details about Bank Day times/locations will be coming soon.
Are you part of a Top Fundraising Team (raising $2,500 or more)? You can schedule a special "bank day pick-up" where our Light The Night staff will come to YOU to pick-up final donations and deliver the T-shirts and wristbands for your team. Contact your Light The Night staff person to schedule this pick-up.
