Challenge for Charity
Challenge for Charity (C4C) is a competition between the top west coast business schools. Throughout the school year, we compete to raise the most money and contribute the most volunteering hours to C4C's official charity, Special Olympics, and one local, family-oriented charity, particular to each school.
The year-long efforts culminate in the C4C Weekend held each spring here at Stanford, when all of the schools send their best athletes, trivia whizzes, and trash talkers to compete in three days of competition! Competitors must have completed a minimum of four hours of C4C volunteering to participate in the weekend events.
The schools also reveal their volunteering and fundraising totals at the start of the weekend. These figures are combined with the athletic results to determine which school takes home the coveted Golden Briefcase!
In 2002, C4C added a brand new secondary charity: the Ronald McDonald House at Stanford. This wonderful organization provides a warm living environment for families of terminally ill children. Additionally, we are continuing our long-standing support of two local Special Olympics chapters, providing weekly coaching, as well as organizing special events with the Stanford University varsity athletes.
Love. Pride. Victory. Stanford C4C.
