ABOUT TURTLE FOR ST. JUDE STEP FUNDRAISER CAMPAIGN
 
Join Turtle in Supporting St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital!
 
Turtle is proud to launch our “Turtle for St. Jude” Step Fundraiser—a company-wide event in support of St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.
 
As we track our steps, we’re also raising vital funds to support St. Jude’s mission: advancing the research and treatment of childhood cancer and other life-threatening diseases.
 
Our Goal:
 
Walk 35 million steps together—and raise funds for St. Jude along the way! Our past Step Challenges have not included an employee fundraising component, but this is an extra way that Turtle is stepping up for St. Jude.
 
As we walk, we fundraise. Each step helps bring awareness and financial support to children and families in need.
 
Company Match Challenge:
 
If we reach our collective goal of 35 million steps, Turtle will celebrate your commitment with an additional company donation to St. Jude!
 
Why St. Jude?
 
Families never receive a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing, or food—because all a family should worry about is helping their child live. Your participation directly helps make that possible.
 
Every Step Counts. Every Dollar Matters.
 
Thank you for being part of this meaningful cause. Let’s step up together—for the kids of St. Jude.

HOW YOUR PARTICIPATION HELPS
I’m Stepping Up for St. Jude with Turtle!

I’ve joined Turtle’s “Turtle for St. Jude” Charity Fundraiser to help raise money for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital—where families never receive a bill for treatment, travel, housing, or food.

This year, we’re tracking our steps and our impact. With your help, I hope to hit my personal fundraising goal and contribute to our company-wide effort to walk 35 million steps together.

Bonus: If Turtle employees hit the step goal, the company will make an extra donation to St. Jude!

Thank you for your support—every step and every dollar count!
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is Charity Footprints?

Charity Footprints is a social enterprise that connects fitness and charitable giving. We empower people just like you, to get fit & give back.

Our Virtual Races allow non-profits to challenge their patrons to run, walk or ride and raise funds just as they would in a fundraising walkathon. The best part - charities save over 45% in event and logistical costs. So, the dollars that you pay to register or fundraise, go farther.

What is the campaign registration fee?

This campaign is free to participate in.

However, we encourage you to donate optional/suggested amount during registration or you can always donate any amount on your fundraising page after the registration.

How can I create my fundraising page?

Well, you wouldn't have to create a separate fundraising page. Once you register for this campaign, we'll give you the link to your fundraising page.

How will I track my distance?

You can track your workouts by setting up your devices (Fitbit, Garmin, Apple Watch, Health Connect By Android, Misfit, Strava), or download the Charity Footprints' iOS or Android app and track your workouts toward this campaign. ?>

If you workout indoors (treadmill, elliptical, stationary bike etc.), you can upload your workouts here.

How do I join a team on this campaign?

While registering for the campaign, select the team you'd like to join or create a new team and invite others to #GetFitGiveBack with you. If you want to join a team (or create your team) after registration, login to the campaign site and you would find a link to edit "My Team" in the menu under your profile in the header.

I am an international donor (non-US), what are my donation charges and tax-deductibility?

All donations are made in US dollars, so the donations may be levied an exchange rate fee via your bank. Donors will want to connect with their bank to determine exactly what that fee may be. Additionally, international donors will need to reach out to a tax professional to discuss if and how tax deductibility will apply to their donation.

Who can sponsor my fundraising efforts?

The short answer is - everyone. The fundraising research shows that the number one reason for people not donating is that they weren't asked to.

That said, there are things you can do to attract people to sponsor you. Adding a picture to your fundraising page, telling potential donors why this cause is so personal to you, sharing your fundraising page on social media, email, and chat groups.

Last, if your employer has a gift matching program, check with the human resources department to support your favorite cause as well.

Who can I contact if I need help?

You can contact us any time if you need help. We love hearing from our users so please don't hesitate to write to us about issues, suggestions, or to just say hi. You can also contact the non-profit administrator directly if you would like.
