Raising money by a sponsored event
There are all sorts of activities that people can participate in as a sponsored event. It can of course include sporting events or walks, but it could also be knitting competitions or 24 hours of skipping or playing marbles non-stop!
Many of the ideas given on this website can become sponsored events. I suppose that the difference is that if people get others to pay them if they achieve their goal, then it becomes a sponsored event! My own view is that a sponsored event should include certain targets that must be achieved in order for the participant to be rewarded as they achieve each target!
The potential ideas are almost endless, the best I can do is to list some of the possibilities.
A sponsored event could include people losing weight who are sponsored by the pound. Running events could involve people being sponsored for each mile that they run. The same could be said for cycling events where people get sponsored each mile they ride.
