The Great Neighbourhood Challenge

The Great Neighbourhood Challenge is for those who enjoy running or walking events but want the flexibility and creativity to choose the type of activity they do, the date, time, and cause that they are fundraising for.

It's...

  • A Challenge to get ACTIVE
  • A Challenge to FUNDRAISE
  • A Challenge to ENGAGE YOUR NEIGHBOURHOOD in a cause that you're passionate about


How Does It Work?

First - Start a Campaign for your Charity by filling out this quick and easy form. There is no cost to set up a Great Neighbourhood Challenge Campaign.

  • Customize the type of activity you would like based on your ideas and goals: 100% virtual fundraiser; individual; multi-person; family/neighbourhood gathering pop-up race; your creativity is the limit!
  • Thinking of a traditional race option? The process is the same.

Second - Tell all your donors, supporters, staff, family, friends, or random strangers about The Great Neighbourhood Challenge and encourage them to join your Campaign. Don't worry, we can help you design the message you will send out to your potential participants and donors, and create a unique landing page to make it easy for people to sign up.

Third - As your fundraiser progresses, we manage all the donations and send shirts and medals to your participants.

After You’ve Made Your Campaign: 

  • Participants start by registering on your Campaign’s custom landing page.
  • They can begin fundraising right away as a personalized fundraising page is created when they register.
  • We manage all registration and donation pages as they come in and liaise with your Charity of our choice to ensure timely distribution of their funds
  • Depending on the format of your campaign, you and your teammates can start fundraising and logging your runs or walks!
  • We ship you shirts and medals for you to distribute on race day or send them to your participants at the conclusion of the fundraiser.
