This competition is being held as a fundraiser for Living Water International.
In sprit of that, we created a fundrasing page where cubers can work together.
At fundraise.water.cc/cube, competitors and those involved can create fundraising pages by clicking Join Team.
We encourage parents to help their younger cubers with this process. You can then share your fundraiser page to friends and family. This is optional.
If every competitor can raise just $15, we can provide water to at least 25 people from this form of fundraising alone. Participation in this can also help us have the possibility of using this venue again in the future.
The competitor with the most money raised and the competitor with the most donors will recieve prizes after the fundraising period has ended (after the competition). More details will be provided later on prizes.
This competition is sponsored by TheCubicle! They will be providing gift cards to the podium.
