Open Charity Challenges
What is an Open Challenge?
Perfect for individuals, small groups and smaller charitable organisations, Open Charity Challenges offer you the chance to join a group challenge and raise money for a charity of your choice. With a lower minimum fundraising target and the same superb range of exotic destinations, Open Challenges are proving increasingly popular. For you, the open challenges are a fantastic way to support a cause close to your heart. For your chosen charity, provided they are happy for you to raise a minimum of £500 (paid directly to the charity) on an overseas challenge they simply need to support your fundraising where necessary. This would involve offering advice and materials and ensuring that they receive your minimum sposorship either by our recommended deadline date or on a date agreed by the Charity.
Our Open Challenges are designed so that the tour cost is payable directly to Kuoni ensuring that it is clear to both the charity and your sponsors where their money is going! While we only require evidence of a minimum of £500 sponsorship for our challenges, should you choose to fundraise for the total amount (including the tour cost) we would encourage you to increase your sponsorship target to match the cost of the trip. This will enable you to reassure your sponsors that at least 50% of their donation goes directly to the Charity.
