We encourage each team to have at least 10 members. 3. Where do I enter cash that was donated to me or my team? Most clubs and Residence Halls have to follow specific procedures when dealing with money. Talk with your club director or RHAD. You can also give it to one of your Event Leads or to our American Cancer Society staff partner. 4. Where do we send checks and who do we make them out to? Checks can be sent to the American Cancer Society’s Manhattan office: 132 West 32nd Street, New York, New York 10001. Checks should be made out to American Cancer Society: Relay For Life at NYU.
