Super Charge Your Team with the Team Week Challenge!

in

Beginning on Monday, September 23rd all Team Captains will have the chance to win daily contests and be rewarded with generous prizes! All Team Captains will want to check their email daily from Monday, September 23rd through Friday, September 27th for five days of challenges and prizes. Each morning during Team Week, Team Captains will receive a message announcing the day’s challenge, the winner from the day before, and our progress towards our goal. If we all participate in Team Week, we have the potential to boost our overall fundraising Walk total by $50,000! 

All daily contests end at midnight on the day of the contest.

Don’t delay – mark your calendar and step up to the Team Week Challenge!


Facebook Fundraising Incentive Winner!
Thank you to walkers who installed the Facebook Boundless Fundraising application! We have over 1,000 walkers who have used Boundless Fundraising on Facebook to boost their team’s fundraising and winners were selected at random. Congratulations to Barb Dougherty of Billman & Conboy – she won a $25 Sports Authority gift card! Honorable mention and special prizes will also be sent to: Sandy Floyd of Sugar Free Floyds, Carie Dougherty of Awesome Sauce, Darlyne Saldan of Eli’s Enthusiasts, Nicole Russell of Marissa’s Montana, Abby Hess of Abby’s Army of Hope, Beth Zahal of Brandon’s Believers, Valerie Fischetti of Fightin’ Fischettis, Debbie Gass of Team Jack, Amanda McDonald of Betes Babies, and Jim Keough of Ethan’s Slapshots.

Thank you to all who participated! Don’t forget, the current incentive ends Friday, September 20th! Every registered walker who raises $500 or more between Wednesday, September 11 and Friday, September 20 will receive their very own travel Breakthrough T1D Stainless Java Mug. If you raise just $50 a day, you’ll have a brand new mug to keep your caffeinated beverages hot and your energies high for the remainder of the Walk season! As an added bonus, we will award our TOP 3 fundraisers (in the same allotted timeframe) a Wawa gift card, which we hope you’ll use to fill up your travel mugs!
