PCF will never charge you for a shirt. If you see other people offering to sell a similar any merchandise within the Facebook Group please report them and a PCF admin will have them removed.
The only way to receive a Challenge t-shirt is by creating a fundraiser.
You must either run, walk, or jog starting September 1st in order for your miles to count. Biking is only an alternative in the event that your doctor recommends you do not engage in the 3 forms of exercise mentioned above. In the event you can only bike we recommend using the following conversion: 3 Biking miles = 1 Run/walk/ jog mile.
We experienced several unforeseen technical difficulties during that Challenge that resulted in many frustrated participants. The 108 Miles in September Challenge will be different. We have several alternative donation methods in place as safeguards in case donation challenges occur including a platform called: Just Giving.
Just Giving will enable participants to allow their supports to donate to their campaign seamlessly without the need to create a Facebook account.
If you would like to receive the challenge t-shirt, you must create a Facebook fundraiser. If you completed the t-shirt form, but did not activate your Facebook fundraiser at that time, you can still create a Facebook fundraiser using this link: https://givp.nl/register/1U1ZH2Je)
No, fundraising is not required to receive your t-shirt or participate in the challenge. However, as a non-profit organization, we rely on donations to continue funding life-saving research for patients. Remember, there is no minimum donation target, so any donation received once you create your fundraiser is much appreciated. We are very grateful for every donation received!

Once your fundraiser is created, please email the team at [email protected] with your fundraiser link and we will get a t-shirt mailed out to you. Once you create your Facebook fundraiser, you can easily locate it here. Please allow 2-3 weeks from the time that you emailed us to receive your t-shirt in the mail. Thank you!
We have a free and printable daily tracker that you can download to record your progress after you finish each day. You can find this tracker here and in the featured section of the Facebook group! You can then update the printable tracker with how many miles you complete! Make sure you post updates on your fundraising page too! That is how your friends and family can monitor your challenge and donate to support you.
Starting September 1st, we encourage everyone to track ALL miles/steps daily during the month. Since 108 miles in 30 days is no easy feat, we want to make sure everyone has a chance to finish the challenge. If you exceed 108 miles, keep walking and share your progress with the group! Make sure you post updates on your fundraising page too! That is how your friends and family can monitor your challenge and donate to support you!
Facebook’s automatic default is two weeks. You can edit your fundraiser any time before it closes, but you won’t be able to change the date once it ends. If your fundraiser has already ended, we encourage you to start a new one and continue fundraising through the end of the challenge (September 30th). You can include a note on your Facebook wall letting your friends and family know how much money you already raised during your first fundraiser if you wish!
