How would you like to rappel down the side of a building?
Fundraising can sometimes be a tall task, but United Way of Cumberland County is taking fundraising to new heights with Over the Edge - an innovative fundraising event. Join for a chance to #RappelforUWCC, descend the 50 feet down the Cape Fear Valley Medical Arts Center in Downtown Fayetteville (101 Robeson Street) and help UWCC raise $100,000 to improve the quality of lives in Cumberland County by addressing critical human needs. Register as an individual and raise a minimum of $1,000 or as a team and raise a minimum of $2,500 to go Over the Edge; just think of it as 40 donations of $25 or combinations of other small amounts.
Over the Edge is a day-long event, which runs from 9:00 am – 4:00 pm. Family, friends and spectators are invited to come down and support participants and enjoy a game of corn hole, vendor tents, etc.
If you don't want to rappel yourself, how about sending your BOSS?
If you have a manager that's pushed you over the edge, now is the perfect time to return the compliment! Form a #UWCCTossYourBoss team to enjoy some fun workplace camaraderie while raising money for a great cause. Just follow these easy steps:
- Get your boss to agree to rappel or go into the chicken coop and raise matching funds to not have to rappel.
- Organize your co-workers to get everyone on board to raise $2,500 to send your boss Over the Edge.
- Click below and create your own team when you register.
- Begin sharing your registration link with family and friends.
- Visit the Cape Fear Valley Medical Arts Center on April 13, 2024, and cheer as your boss goes Over the Edge!
Companies and organizations that participate in Toss Your Boss will receive sponsorship recognition at the event and in pre-event communications once they raise $2,500.
- Logo placement on the UWCC website for Over the Edge advertising
- Logo placement and a shout-out in one issue of our email newsletter sent to rappelers.
