Geo-Challenge Fundraiser

Be a Sponsor for the most educational and interactive event on the Kenai!

An Amazing Geo-Challenge sponsor means supporting youth education from the central peninsula area to all communities around Alaska. This two event fundraiser (geocache race and banquet) raises money and awareness for S.T.E.M. (science, technology, engineering, and math) education through Challenger Learning Center of Alaska’s hands-on learning programs and the Kenai Chamber’s scholarship fund.

The Amazing Geo-Challenge on the Kenai is also about community and partnership. Challenger, as a non-profit, values the importance of community support. We recognize many businesses are struggling during these trying times which is why we want to foster positive relations and provide initiatives to promote our sponsors and local businesses. Besides providing the marketing benefits, a geo-challenge team, and tickets to the banquet mentioned at each sponsorship level, we want to ask how else we can help you. What can we do to most benefit you in being a sponsor?

If you can’t be a sponsor this year, there are other ways to participate. Signing your employees up as a team is a great way for team building and comic relief! We are also looking for in-kind donations as prizes and silent auction items at the evening banquet. This would be perfect to showcase your products and services!

Local Businesses YOU can host as a cache & challenge site!

Local support, community, and partnership are important to Challenger Learning Center of Alaska. For our education fundraiser this year, The Amazing Geo-Challenge on the Kenai, we want to incorporate more local aspects into the race. We are looking for local businesses to host a location, which will bring people to your door and give your valued service extra exposure. If you do not have a customer-friendly building, we can also assign you a park location to set up!

The Amazing Geo-Challenge is to raise awareness and money for educational S.T.E.M (science, technology, engineering, and math) programs Challenger provides for students, teachers, and homeschoolers across the state, as well as raise money for the Kenai Chamber’s scholarship program. Our vision is to strengthen workforce development by delivering stimulating, real-world activities to Alaskans and inspire students to pursue higher education and careers within a growing and competitive S.T.E.M. fields.

Challenger, as a non-profit, recognizes many businesses are struggling during these trying times and we want to foster positive relations and provide initiatives to promote our sponsors and local businesses. We want to ask how else we can help you. What can we do to most benefit you in being a geo-challenge location host? There are a limited number of designated sites to be assigned and selected sites need to be appropriately spaced out along the race area with enough space at the location for multiple people, cache hiding, and activities. All you need to do is fill out the form below, place a bid amount of how much you’d like to donate for this event opportunity, and we will call to let you know if you have one of the top 8 location bids.

Besides bringing the event participants to your business and taking part in an exciting day, as a thank you, you and a plus one will receive entry to the Mad Science Banquet in the evening. It will be a “scientifically mad” good time, with dinner, science demonstrations, games, science experiments, silent auction, drinks, and prizes!

We hope you can join us! Your contributions will allow Challenger to continue delivering affordable, innovative programs and inspire the workforce of tomorrow. If you can’t be a host this year, there are other ways to participate. Signing your employees up as a team is a great way for team building and comic relief! We are also looking for in-kind donations as prizes and silent auction items. This would be perfect to showcase your products and services!

Regular admission for the Geo-Challenge is $500 for a team of 4, includes a full day of geo activities, lunch, t-shirt, prizes, entry into the banquet, and dinner. Separate tickets for just the banquet fundraiser are $75/each.

(Shhh) Remember…If you are requesting to become a designated location make sure to keep it secret!
