Welcome to the DO MORE Charity Challenge
Presented by Community Banks of Colorado.
October 3rd and 4th, 2015
We all have charity causes that we believe in. The Do More Charity Challenge allows you to choose the cause that YOU believe in and want to compete on behalf of. And if you do well, earn money for their cause.
It is a 6 person, two-day event that is going to be a lot of fun. Please see below for the details and if you have any questions, send an email to: [email protected].
The Do More Charity Challenge is the only event in the CrossFit world where you can earn money for your charity of choice with your athletic performance. We are raising $100,000 in sponsorship dollars for the prize purse. (As of May 1st, we are currently almost half way there.) We will be awarding that $100k to the top 10 teams Charity of Choice.
