TRAIN YOUR CHARITY: THE METROPOLIS EXPRESS FALL 2010 CHALLENGE
Win $10,000 For Your Cause!!
Metropolis at Metrotown is launching a brand-new fundraising program aimed at helping valuable Burnaby-based non-profit organizations continue their amazing work in our community.
The Train Your Charity: The Metropolis Express Fall 2010 Challenge will select four successful program applicants to participate in the Challenge, with each organization earning cash for its cause while competing to secure the grand prize grant of $10,000!
TELL US: How you're going to take the Metropolis Express to a new level!
SHOW US: What your self-marketing plan is. Challenge participants will be chosen based on their unique and innovative self-marketing ideas designed to engage and excite our community.
HELP US: Build excitement in the community. Most people don't know that they can ride the Metropolis Express for a $1 donation - with ALL funds donated back to charity. It could be yours!
HERE'S HOW IT WORKS: Each of the four successful organizations will be designated a month - September, October, November or December - to organize a one-day fundraising Challenge utilizing the Metropolis Express train. Mall customers are invited to ride the Metropolis Express for a minimum $1 donation with all proceeds from each month's earnings donated back to the applicable charity. In December, the non-profit organization that raised the most money during its one-day challenge will receive $10,000 in addition to train funds donated during its respective month.
Each applicable charity will be tasked with organizing a one-day fundraising challenge designed to pique the interest of mall users in riding the Metropolis Express and, thereby, drive further donations back to the applicable non-profit. Participating charities will be chosen based on the uniqueness of their Challenge marketing plan.
