A high-tech event to use as a fund raiser or team builder

“The Real Estate Challenge is an exciting simulation of how the commercial real estate market operates and is an excellent event as a fundraiser or as a fun and interactive corporate team builder.”

“The Real Estate Challenge is the most exciting event I’ve ever been apart of! All the factors that drive the real market are represented here only in a more compressed environment which makes the pace fast and furious! We can’t wait to do it again next year!”

Gordon Neal, President & CEO, Innovative Properties Inc.

The Stock Market Challenge has helped JA Wichita get back on its feet with corporate sponsorships. We plan to always offer this wonderful opportunity for the Wichita area high school juniors and seniors. Having the event during one of our country's most difficult financial times turned out to be perfect timing. Everyone was really ready for a night of serious fun. Local corporations found it refreshing to enjoy an evening out in this unique team building environment, plus a nice chance to mingle with other business leaders in the area. Polly Gentry, Event Co-Chair, JA Wichita

The Stock Market Challenge event is a great vehicle for fund raising and an excellent way to connect the financial leaders of today with the financial leaders of tomorrow. The principals, teachers and students embraced the Student event which doubled in size. We filmed the morning student event and showed a short version at the main event to reflect the impact the sponsors' generosity had on the high school students, the participants loved it! Joss Francheterre, V. P. Special Events, JA Arizona

With the current economic crisis that is facing our nation it is becoming increasingly more important to teach our young people how to become financially responsible. The Stock Market Challenge is a unique, fun, memorable way to give students a hands on experience that provides them with tools to be successful in the future.

The Stock Market Challenge is the most exciting event in Boston! Fun-Raiser makes it easy to plan and they are very flexible and accommodating to all of JA’s specific needs. It’s rare to get more than one hundred teenagers excited about anything these days but this event does exactly that. Through the Challenge, the students get a first-hand glimpse of how the Stock Market works and they have so much fun at the same time. Then at night, our donors, board members and friends come play the game. During these tough economic times, everyone deserves a night to let loose with their co-workers and the Stock Market Challenge was a perfect opportunity for them to do so. Everyone leaves with a smile on their face. We can’t wait for next year’s event, in fact some teams have already reserved their spots!

"It was easy working with Fun-Raiser and the staff was amazing to work with. Planning The Stock Market Challenge" was a lot of fun, especially seeing how competitive the teams got prior to the event. It built the excitement so high that by the night of the event they wanted to spend as much money as it took to beat one another!"

Amy Kupfer, Program Manager, JA-South Central Texas

"The Stock Market Challenge” is an event we can position and present to a new market successfully. Participants love it! Fun-Raiser staff was great to work with. The Stock Market Challenge" has the potential to become a true signature event for us, with a little more flash and class than our current signature event (bowling). One of our most respected, well-known corporate leaders had the best quote, 'This is the best fund raiser I've ever been to...when are you going to do it again?' If you want to see the event, come to Austin and visit ours. We'll sell you a team, because it will be standing room only!"

Dave Swincher, President, JA-South Central Texas

"Our staff all agrees, working with Fun-Raiser was a pleasure. Our student event met all of our expectations and the evening fund-raising event was successful."
