Clothes/toy drive – people may have a bunch of excess clothes, toys or any other items now that Christmas is over and done with. Why not ask for donations of old clothes or toys to give to those less fortunate?
-
Give something up – want to break a habit? Get sponsored for giving something up or donate the money you’re saving – it might be alcohol, your morning coffee or sweet treats.
-
Walk your dog month – many resolve to get fit and incorporate more movement into their lives, so an exercise based challenge would be a great way to get started in January! Exercise challenges can also be in the form of a 5k or marathon, a swim-athon, a bike ride, etc.
-
Take the cold plunge – thousands of people willingly jump into incredibly cold water as part of the polar plunge each year. Do this and ask for donations for your sheer bravery (or insanity!).
-
Try something completely new – want some new hobbies and interests? Try something bold and set yourself a personal goal while receiving support for it in the form of donations. This can be anything from writing a novel, having a read-athon or participating in extreme water sports!
