Pack Shoeboxes, Earn Tickets

Your organization begins to earn tickets by packing at least 25 shoeboxes. Those who have packed shoeboxes before this year’s Challenge can earn up to 50 tickets. The more shoeboxes you pack, the more tickets that can be earned. Please see the formula below:

 

  • 25 – 49 Shoeboxes Collected = 1 Additional Ticket
  • 50 – 74 Shoeboxes Collected = 1 Additional Ticket
  • 75 – 99 Shoeboxes Collected = 1 Additional Ticket
  • 100 – 149 Shoeboxes Collected = 1 Additional Ticket
  • 150 – 199 Shoeboxes Collected = 1 Additional Ticket
  • 200 – 299 Shoeboxes Collected = 1 Additional Ticket
  • 300 – 399 Shoeboxes Collected = 1 Additional Ticket
  • 400 – 499 Shoeboxes Collected = 1 Additional Ticket
  • 500+ Shoeboxes Collected = 1 Additional Ticket per each 100 Shoeboxes collected

Refer new organizations to join the Shoebox Challenge and earn more tickets!

When you create an account and register for the Shoebox Challenge, your organization is given a referral code. This code is available in your registration confirmation email and can be viewed on your account dashboard once logged in. By spreading the news to friends in other organizations to participate in the Challenge, you can earn your organization bonus tickets!

Simply share your referral code with others and remind them to enter it during registration. We will then validate the referrals and inform you of bonus tickets earned by referral when its time to claim tickets.

 

*Bonus tickets will be awarded pending verification of a valid referral code used by churches who are new to the challenge and pack at least 25 shoeboxes.
