GoChallenge went the extra mile to make sure the heavy lift wasn't something I had to manage. They tailored this experience around our culture and channels to make sure it landed with our people. We can't wait to work with them again.

The idea

Finish, and a wish is granted

Amgen is title sponsor of the Amgen Irish Open, with Make-A-Wish Ireland as the tournament charity. Walk for Wishes gave the 830 people inside the business a stake in that.

Everyone sets their own daily walking goal. Everyone who sees it through unlocks a €75 Amgen donation. A lunchtime stroller counts for as much as a marathon runner. 161 of 252 movers hit their full goal, walking 47,714 km together — about 1.2 times round the Earth — at 9,100 steps a day.
