The Cash, Sweat & Tears Awards honor the commitment and passion of North America’s most extraordinary fundraising volunteers – your most dedicated and accomplished fundraisers who shine a light on your mission and inspire their friends, family and colleagues to support your organization.
Each year, the Peer-to-Peer Professional Forum invites peer-to-peer campaigns to nominate an inspiring fundraiser for the Cash Sweat & Tears Award. The winner will be recognized at the P2PForum25 conference in Atlanta, GA on March 13, 2025.
Nominations are due Friday, December 13, 2024.
A five-year personal fight against prostate cancer has not stopped Scott Freitag from mounting an extraordinary fundraising campaign for ZERO Prostate Cancer. It has inspired it.
In June 2023, Freitag began an 11,000 mile bike journey to pedal across all the US border states to raise funds and awareness to fight prostate cancer. To date, the 60-year old retired postal worker has pedaled more than 6,500 miles across 28 state lines and raised nearly $150,000. His wife Katy trails him in the camper they now call their home away from home. Through all of this, Scott continues to battle his Stage IV cancer by receiving hormone therapy and radiation therapy to keep his disease at bay.
For these reasons and more, Scott & Katy Freitag were honored with the Cash, Sweat & Tears Award, the Peer-to-Peer Professional Forum’s annual recognition of the year’s most inspiring volunteers. Nominated by ZERO Prostate Cancer, the Freitags were selected from numerous nominations made by nonprofit organizations.
We received a long list of outstanding volunteers who were nominated for the 2024 Cash, Sweat & Tears Award. We recognize all of the nominees by listing them in our 2024 Honor Roll
