How does it work?
Kids commit to eat five servings of fruits and vegetables each
day for one school week and try to get sponsors to support
their efforts. Participants invite family and friends to
sponsor them and RFKM and the PTA split the
profits. Each participant will have their own online
fundraising page, which they can send to friends and
family to make a tax-deductible donation. RFKM supplies
the back end fundraising software, all the poster
templates, e-mail
templates, a Power Point on healthy
eating for teachers, and food and drinks for a party at
the end of the challenge. PTAs agree to the use of their
name and logo and to send out posters (elementary school
only) and messages to support the challenge, and provide
the venue, arrangements, plates, silverware, cups,
napkins and volunteers for an in-school party for
participants.
Fundraising Goals:
Participants are encouraged to set a minimum fundraising
goal of $25. Donors can sponsor participants to eat
just one serving of fruits and vegetables for $5 or
sponsor an entire day's worth of servings for just $25!
