You Can "Pay It Forward" Too!
"Pay It Forward" Challenge Ambassadors (that's you!) are encouraged to spread the word about the Challenge, solicit donations, host their own "Pay It Forward" Challenge fundraisers, participate in their own endurance events and inspire others to do the same.
There are many ways to "Pay It Forward":
- Challenge yourself to participate in an endurance event in your community (running, biking, swimming or tri) as a catalyst for soliciting funds for The "Pay It Forward" Challenge benefiting the CHOC Cancer Institute.
- Host a "Pay It Forward" Challenge fundraiser (party, wine tasting, ice cream social, etc.). Be creative!
- Encourage your family and friends to do the same.
- Make a tax-deductible donation online at www.choc.org or by mailing a check or money order payable to: CHOC Foundation for Children, 455 S. Main Street, Orange, CA 92868. Please be sure to indicate that your gift is in honor of The “Pay It Forward” Challenge.
- Make a single donation or commit to a monthly donation to spread your contribution over time. You can either post a reminder on your calendar to write a monthly check or in the monthly contribution section of www.choc.org, enter your monthly amount and the end date (if you want one). Either way, be sure to indicate that your contributions are for the "Pay It Forward" Challenge.
- Provide in-kind sponsorship of equipment, supplies, food, fuel and lodging for Lamar's "Pay It Forward" Challenge State-to-State Double Triathlon.
- Use the power of technology to spread the word and our website address -- www.payitforwardchallenge.net -- via emails, text or instant messages or via good old- fashioned postal mail or heartfelt conversation!
