HOW DOES THE FUNDRAISING WORK?
We believe that world-class challenges shouldn't just be for those with deep pockets, and they definitely shouldn't come at the expense of the causes we care about. That’s why we’ve built an industry-leading fundraising model that puts the power back into the hands of the community.
Unlike many in the industry, we don’t charge our partnered charities a fee to be part of the mission (seems a bit wrong in our opinion). Instead, we use a transparent 50/50 split to fuel both your growth and their impact:
- 100% of your fundraising goes to the charity
- Your charity pays Hardest a balance fee to cover the remaining cost of your place on the challenge.
- 100% of your fundraising beyond your set target stays with your charity, we only take what is absolutely necessary for us to deliver each challenge safely and financially sustainably.
This model is a triple win. It allows charities to receive vital funding they otherwise wouldn’t get, it allows us to get more people out into the wild, and it allows you to take on a mission that might have felt out of reach.
WHO CAN YOU FUNDRAISE FOR?
We're partnered with several amazing charities as covered below. Whichever one you choose/are assigned to for your challenge, you'll get plenty of support from both them, and us.
