Corporate Cup will take place on Thursday, September 19, 2024!

Corporate Cup is an in-person event where teams compete in various challenges throughout the day, followed by a post party. Check out our video from 2022 to see more.

Planned challenges include: relay races, basketball shot, football toss, memory games, obstacle course, tug of war, soccer kicks, and more.

Teams will receive 1 point for every $100 they fundraise, up to $1,000. After that, they will receive 1 point for every $500 they fundraise.
At the event, teams will accrue points based on their results in the activities vs. the field of competitors.
