Every performance from every competitor counts because of performance-based fundraising. The concept is simple: the better a competitor performs, the more money he earns via donations.
So rise to the challenge. Set goals. Train hard. Exceed expectations. Raise more money than you thought you could by breaking your performance goals in every event. We’ll crown Wall Street’s Best Athlete and provide first class awards to the Top Executive, Top Fundraiser, and winners in various age groups.
Competition has never been so intense, yet so rewarding.
