Why 31?

31 represents the number of communities we work with around the world. Each community struggles with barriers of disadvantage despite being rich with potential.

This is where you come in. With just a spark, you can help empower determined communities to break free from disadvantage.

The 31 Challenge is your chance to be that spark. Your kindness and hard work will support vulnerable people to build lives filled with dignity and hope, which will create more resilient communities that will be felt for future generations.

How can I raise money for The 31 Challenge?

We recommend fundraisers use JustGiving if they are hosting an event or needing sponsorship for their 31 Challenge. You can start your JustGiving page here.

It’s easy to share your page with your friends and family, track your fundraising progress, and even create a team with other fundraisers.

You can also request a paper sponsorship form when you sign up. Then, you can donate your funds using our website, sending us a cheque, or calling us.

What support will I receive?

After signing up, you will be invited to join our 31 Challenge Facebook group. This is a great place to connect with our community of supporters who are also doing the challenge and encourage each other! You can share your fundraising progress, and we’ll share fundraising tips to smash your target.

Alternatively, we will be sending all vital information and tips for fundraising via email.

Where are the donations going?

Funds raised will go towards the whole of our work in the 31 overlooked communities we serve. This includes both our Next Generation Projects and Spark Projects.

Our promise is that all of your funds raised will be project-focused, with none of it going towards admin or fundraising.

Is there a booking fee?

No, there is no booking fee for you to sign up for The 31 Challenge!
