Free Ben & Jerry's

As we have been continuously telling people, we are very excited this month to have partnered with Ben & Jerry’s to offer our Doer of the Month each month a year’s supply of ice cream.

“What do you have to do to become Doer of the Month?”  I hear you ask. Well, it’s simple: sign up for a challenge and start raising sponsorship on The DoNation. Sponsorship in the form of action – that’s what The DoNation is all about. Raise the most pledges in any one month, and a year’s supply of Ben & Jerry’s is yours. 

And here’s the good news: August is a quiet month for The DoNation, so if you do a challenge in August, you’re in for a good chance of scooping the prize. 

What sort of ‘challenge’?

There’s a bunch of things going on in August that you can get stuck into: from a super exciting (and slightly quirky) backward-running race up in Manchester to Bristol’s very own overnight cycle ride, the Exmouth Exodus.

We are most excited about the 'Run Through' 10k. Whether it’s your first running challenge or an opportunity to beat your personal best, this smooth course through Brixton’s Brockwell Park is the perfect opportunity to raise some pledges and be in for the chance to scoop (have we used that pun too often yet?!) our creamy prize.
