Charity Challenges
Participate in a Charity Challenge!
Get active, challenge yourself, and raise funds for WAGGGS the fun way! The 2010 Challenge Program includes a variety of exciting events held around the world for you to choose from. Be it climbing Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania, walking across the hilly landscapes of Scotland, cycling from London to Paris or setting out on a trek across the Sahara or Argentina.
Charity challenges cost much less to the participant than organizing the same trip on your own. After paying a deposit, you pledge to find sponsors to cover the remainder of the minimum sponsorship level. Over half of the minimum sponsorship level and every pound after that goes directly to WAGGGS.
