FAQ

Please find our frequently asked questions below:

How do I sign up and collect donations?

You can register for the challenge and your free WWF t-shirt here! Share your fundraising page with friends and family and ask them to sponsor you to complete your kilometres.

I'm worried I won't get any donations

Remember, you’ve got plenty of time to collect donations, so try not to worry. Here’re some of our top fundraising tips:

Donate to your own fundraiser – it shows your friends and family that you’re taking your challenge seriously!
See if your employer has a ‘matched donations’ policy – you could potentially double the amount your raise!
Keep your friends and family updated with your challenge and they'll donate once they see what you're doing.
Personalise your fundraiser blurb & photo - this makes a huge difference! Tell people what's motivated you to take on the challenge.

How do we track our kilometres and do I need to provide evidence of completing them?

There's no need to prove you've completed your kilometres - but you're able to log your kilometres on your WWF fundraiser so you can keep track and share your progress with friends & family so they can see how well you're doing!

For tracking on the go, there're some good free apps such as Strava, Map My Run or RunKeeper.

When do I get my free t-shirt?

To qualify for your free WWF neck buff you must register before 7th June 2025. We only post t-shirts to UK addresses, and it is a maximum of one t-shirt per person. Please allow up to 10 working days for your t-shirt to arrive in the post. WWF t-shirts are available while stocks last.

How do I receive a WWF eco medal?

To qualify for a WWF eco medal, you must have raised the £150 target amount, by no later than 00:00hrs on 3rd July 2025. WWF eco medals are available while stocks last.

Why is their a Facebook group?

The Facebook group is a fantastic way to connect with other people doing the challenge. You can swap fundraising or training tips and share photos of your challenge. Plus, everyone in the group will support you while you’re doing your kilometres.

What is a Social Sync fundraiser?

Upon registration, we automatically create you a Just Giving page and an additional Social Sync fundraising page, which we call your WWF fundraiser. You can receive donations to this page much like any other fundraising page and you can log your kilometres on it too. Your Social Sync fundraiser total will reflect your total across your Just Giving page too.
