Morale Staff
As a member of Morale Staff, you will work as a student ambassador for raiseRED through assisting in hosting pre-events, tabling on campus, and engaging with our student body regarding raiseRED. You will participate in a variety of workshops to learn how
to present information about raiseRED to students, how to maintain a positive and inclusive environment, and how to lead effectively. The goal as a Morale Staff member is to promote positivity and excitement around raiseRED and our mission by creating personal
relationships with other students. You will lead a color team during the marathon, ensuring people are excited and engaged throughout the entire duration. Your passion and love for the cause will be an inspiration to other dancers to fight for our kids. As
