Charity Fundraising

For those of you who have signed up to your Ultra Challenge on  – Full Charity Sponsorship, Mixed Funding, or Own Place Fundraising – here you can find all the information you need to get started, and set up with an online sponsorship / donation page with JustGiving (JustGiving.com).

Contact from your Charity

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT

You can expect to hear from your chosen charity within 2 weeks of registering onto your Ultra Challenge. Whilst every charity communicates slightly differently with their fundraisers – most offer advice, fundraising buckets/ donation tins, t-shirts etc. 

However you don’t need to wait for them! Follow the guidelines below;  set up your online JustGiving sponsorship donation page NOW – and let your friends, family or work colleagues know where to find it – and get started!

NOT HEARD FROM YOUR CHARITY

It is important that your chosen charity supports you as best possible – as that’s what they agree to as an Ultra Challenge® partner! Therefore – If you have not heard from your chosen charity within 2 weeks of signing up to your challenge, or perhaps you’ve transferred/deferred from 2023 to 2024 and still not heard from your charity, then please email us at: charity@actionchallenge.com – and we’ll follow it up.

ADVICE FOR THOSE AFFECTED

If you were due to take on a 2024 challenge, and you cancelled or deferred your place please ensure your Just Giving/ fundraising page is set up correctly for 2024 so that your charity can keep a track of your fundraising.  

We advise that you set up a new fundraising page (using the links in the above section) and add any money you’ve raised on the 2023 event as an ‘offline donation’ to your new page. For more information on how to add money to offline pages please follow this link below:

Concerned about reaching your target?

YOU'VE GOT OPTIONS

If you are concerned about meeting your 50% target we suggest speaking to your charity for help and advice. Alternatively, you can contact us and cover the difference in registration fee to switch to either a Mixed Funding place (if currently on Charity Sponsorship) to reduce your target, or to a Self Funding Place to remove your target completely. 

If you would like to amend your fundraising option, or change to Self Funding complete our short form below, and our team will be back in touch.
