Spring Into Strides Challenge

Why Participate?

How to Participate

Our Spring into Strides challenge for April 2026 is our moment to fuel our Making Strides Fundraising. This Fundraising challenge will set our events up for an incredible season. Leveraging the excitement of our April Spring Into Strides Challenge, staff are encouraged to generate event revenue by PICKING UP THE PHONE to reengage their top fundraising audiences to drive fundraising momentum for event success.

Why Now?

FACT – Participants who register by the end the end of April raise over TWICE as much as those who register and fundraise in May-July… and up to 8x more than those who register later in the season.

That means the work we do right now changes the outcome of the entire season.
