  • With each challenge will come a set of tasks and deliverables that participants will be asked to complete and upload.

  • Each participant must start with the green challenge and then work their way through. The further you delve the more points you accrue and the opportunity to win prizes.

  • Each Challenge will have a different theme and new tasks

  • The tasks you will be asked to complete might include; questions, survey, photos or a video.

  • Each Challenge will remain live for 24 hours and participants must complete challenge tasks during that timeframe unless otherwise noted. (some of the Extra Credit Challenges will have longer response periods).

  • Once the next challenge is posted, there is no going back!
