The Nonprofit Wellness Challenge is a comprehensive 10-week event that enables employer groups to bring their charitable giving and employee wellness objectives together in a single solution.
The Challenge is a bonified employee wellness solution that engages, educates, and inspires employees to be as fit as they can be through a series of challenges, group events, health education, and personal achievements.
So rather than funding two separate initiatives, the Challenge enables groups to combine both in a solution that’s tailored to their needs, reduces costs, engages employees, and drives a ton of donations to the nonprofit of their choice.
In the Challenge participants earn wellness points by completing activities that address their physical, mental, and financial well-being, from tracking steps to learning about meditation to balancing a budget!
The fundraising happens when participants get friends and family to sponsor them based on the number of points they earn. This enables individuals to raise hundreds and their employer thousands for their nonprofit, all while striving to be as fit as they can be, physically, mentally, and financially!
Blending employee wellness with fundraising!

The Fundraising
There are over 7,800 possible points that can be earned in the Challenge. Sponsors can commit to donate 1, 2, or 5 cents per wellness point earned. To give sponsors a sense of their total possible commitment, points are capped at 5,000. If one participant recruits 4 sponsors, who each pledge just 1 cent, and they earn 5,500 points (easy to do!), that single participant can generate $200 in donation.
The real fundraising happens when multiple employer groups get together to support the same nonprofit, competing against each other to the Nonprofit Wellness Cup.
