Forming a Corporate Team 
 

Local Team – HorizonWALKS Baltimore

 

Forming a corporate team for HorizonWALKS is a great way to engage your employees outside of work, offer leadership development opportunities, and build staff morale.  

 

Get Started 

  • Register the Team: 

  • - Click ‘Register’ to set up your team. 

  • Appoint a Team Captain: 

  • - Designate at least one person, or more depending on the size of your company, to serve as the Team Captain. This individual will play a pivotal role in coordinating and leading the efforts of your Team, ensuring effective communication and collaboration among team members.   

  • Recruit Team Members: 

  • - Encourage team participation by highlighting the power of collective fundraising. Studies show that team walkers tend to raise more money than individual participants. To maximize your impact:   

- Division or Departmental Split: 

- Consider organizing your team based on divisions or departments within your company. This not only fosters team spirit but also adds a friendly element of competition.  

  • - Friendly Fundraising Competition: 

- Introduce a bit of friendly rivalry among divisions or departments. A healthy competition can serve as a motivating factor, driving your fundraising efforts to new heights. 

 

Remember, the more united and engaged your team, the greater the impact you can make in supporting the mission of Horizon. Get everyone on board and let the friendly competition begin!
