2017 Charity Challenge

Following on from the success of the 2016 Charity Challenge, Vistage UK-IRL are pleased to announce the launch of the 2017 Charity Challenge. This initiative enables groups to raise substantial funds towards a nominated charity or good cause of their choice. Any referral rewards due as a result of new members      (in your own or another Vistage group) will be matched by Vistage. The total money raised can then be used by your group to support your chosen charity or good cause.

 

How to get involved

  1. Decide which charity or good cause you want to support in your next group meeting and inform your Chair.
  2. Individually register referrals, either via your Chair or via the simple form below.
  3. Share progress updates on the challenge in your group meetings and via your social media channels.
  4. Celebrate with your nominated charity! Don't forget to send Vistage any photos so we can share your celebrations.

If your group has a charity that you want to support, why not make a difference and get your group behind this initiative.

A successful CEO member referral earns a reward payment of £1,000, so three successful referrals would mean a £3,000 donation to your group's charity. And don’t forget, as the original referrer you still get your own referral reward (or you can choose to add your own referral reward to the charity 'pot', doubling the amount to £6,000 in the above example).

The Charity Challenge window will run from 1st October 2017 to 31 December 2017. To be eligible for the matched charity payment valid referrals must be correctly logged with Vistage in this window and must become a paying member by 31st March 2018.
