FAQ
During the event, Heroes are encouraged to fundraise to meet their personal fundraising goal and complete a total of 12 quests to earn virtual badges and successfully conquer their journey.
The quests will help you exercise your mind and body, practice wellness and gratitude, and teach you the importance of care. You can complete the quests at your own pace, either all at once or throughout the event. The decision is up to you!
After you finish each quest, Heroes must complete a quick survey and a “secret code” will activate your badge and appear on your personal fundraising page for everyone to see. It’s that simple!
The first 250 Heroes who complete ALL the quest challenges and earn all their badges will be eligible to receive an exclusive Hero Medal. Your Hero Medal, if you choose to accept it, will be delivered to your address provided at registration.
