Pledge

By accepting a place, I pledge to raise the minimum sponsorship, which I will pay to the charity within one month of the event. The objective is to raise as much sponsorship as possible. I understand that the place I am offered has been purchased for me at the charity’s expense with the intention of generating a fundraising profit for SameYou and that if I take the place, the charity is unable to offer it to anybody else. I will inform SameYou immediately if I am unable to take part in the event or unable to meet the fundraising pledge.
