Relay For Life Swot Analysis

The Run for Wellness Free 5K run has been an ongoing event since 2011 created by the Houston Wellness Project. The organization was founded in response to the rising necessity for improving community access to wellness programing. The mission of The Houston Wellness Project is to strive to promote healthy lifestyle choices by educating people and communities on a culture of positive wellness education. The Run for Wellness Free 5K is the main event that assist in fulfilling the mission as it usually occurs three times a month in three different locations here in Houston. The 5K run is free event that encourages people of all ages to come out and participate in an event that promotes a healthy lifestyle. There are many sponsors that support the event and help it be free for the people. Some of those sponsors include The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston Marathon Foundation, Ramey & Schwaller, Houston Striders, and many more. Without their support and donations, plus the help of the volunteers, there is no way possible this event would be free for people to come out and enjoy. Furthermore, people participating in the event are free to donate as well, but it is not mandatory.

The American Red Cross organizations main focus is recruiting blood donors and volunteers; this is very clear from the first click on their website-a pop up window asking for the reader’s zip code in order to find a donation site near them. The tabs up at the top labeled with large print are inferred to be their most valued ideas. Below each of those tabs is a list of resources related to those individual tabs that help better define their purpose. The American Red Cross website uses the all three of the main types of rhetoric-pathos, ethos, and logos-in a way that benefits their organization and successfully grasps their audience.

UPS still relies on its chocolate-colored trucks, but United Parcel Service (UPS) aims to be more than a plain-vanilla delivery business. Seattle teens, Jim Casey and Claude Ryan started American Messenger Company, a phone message service, in 1907. They were soon making small-parcel deliveries for local department stores and in 1913 changed the company's name to Merchants Parcel Delivery. Service expanded outside of Seattle in 1919 when Merchants Parcel bought Oakland, California-based Motor Parcel Delivery. By 1930, the company, which had been renamed United Parcel Service, served residents in New York City (its headquarters from 1930 to 1975); Newark, New Jersey; and Greenwich, Connecticut.

St. Jude children’s research hospital is a non profit hospital where patients do not have to pay for care. St. Jude produce many heartfelt commercials to get the public to know about them who they are and why they should donate. Besides newspapers, and billboards, commercials where the best way to advertise, now a days social media is the way to go. St. Jude’s children’s research hospital should make less commercials to promote themselves and step into the new era where the benefits will be obvious and better than what commercials used to provide them. There are many ways to promote oneself on social media to reach various audiences and to get their point across. St. Judes should sell themselves online to the public and gain important support

St. Jude’s target for marketing fundraising is far larger than most charities. Their target; preschoolers, professionals, 8th graders and 80 year olds, television, radio, local drives, school drives, trike-a-thons, math-a-thons, local, county, state and national events. Some of the big ones that you may be familiar with; the “Dream Home Giveaway”, the “Thanks and Giving Campaign” and the radio-a-thon “Country Cares”. Because of last year’s St. Jude’s NFL event, 18% of American’s said they planned to support St. Jude’s “Thanks and Giving Campaign” during this past holiday season. No opportunity is turned away.

The British Heart Foundation is the UK’s Number 1 Heart Charity. Their vision “is a world where people don’t die prematurely from heart disease.” They were founded in 1961 by a group of medical specialists who wanted to give money to fund extra research to find out the causes of heart diseases. They were concerned about the number of people with Cardiovascular Heart Disease who were dying prematurely. They have been going for 53 years and have been helping people since then. They have been taking part in all events but the main one which is coming up in September is the Oxford to Cambridge Bike Ride.

Having philanthropy events has always been one of my favorite things about Greek life. Whether it is attending other sorority or fraternities’ events or being apart of our own. Delta Gamma holds two main events for Service for Sight each year. In the fall we have Anchor Slam which is a three on three basketball tournament where sororities and fraternities come out to compete against one another. In the spring we held Anchor Splash which is a synchronized swimming event with many different relay races. This year we had the Whited family come and speak on their behalf. They explained how Lochlan was diagnosed with CRB1 and how he will eventually loose his eyesight completely. This story touched a lot of students, faculty, and families that attended our philanthropy. We made Lochlan our featured anchor man and tried to raise as much money as possible for the family. This event was very successful and we raised over 1,800 dollars to give to the family.

Jude’s Hospital is to advance cures of pediatric cancer and other catastrophic diseases. With this being said, I feel they should express their success rates more often. Increasing survival rate from 20 to 80% is such a significant statistic that could sway an audience’s opinion. Sharing the statistics and the fact that the families treated never receive a bill play a major role. People love to feel like they are making a difference, by expressing that your donation will help a family overcome cancer or other diseases will accomplish that. A campaign stating how much they have accomplished already, and expressing how they need the audience’s help to continue to increase their survival rate would be

Relay for Life is a fundraiser that’s goal is to one day live in a cancer free world. All of the money raised goes towards saving lives, whether it is for patients or medical research. Relay for Life represents the memory of those lost to cancer, hope of those who face cancer and support offered to them, that one day cancer will be eradicated from the world, and a world with more birthdays. At Relay there are teams that raise money intended to fight cancer, and find a cure. Even with all the funding, and searching for the cure to rid our world of cancer as of today there still is not a cure. The chances of someone having cancer increases the longer the disease is allowed to run ramped. Cancer doesn’t discriminate, anyone can get cancer at any
