Sports Challenge
Every metre counts – for children and young people
Sport is your passion and you're looking for a new challenge? Turn your next sporting challenge into a fundraiser: whether it's running, cycling, climbing or swimming, have every kilometre run, every goal scored or every metre of elevation climbed rewarded by friends and family with a donation to Hobby Lobby. How it works
How it works
Choose your challenge
Anything goes, as long as it pushes you. Tried-and-tested formats include running events such as the marathon in your city, a long-distance hike, a bike ride or a fitness challenge – on your own or in a group.
Get in touch with us
Tell us about your plans. We'll support you with tips on how to reach as many people as possible.
Set your sponsorship model
Ask your supporters for either a fixed amount or an amount per kilometre/metre of elevation/goal, e.g. "£1 per kilometre run". We'll create a dedicated page for your sports challenge with your own donation tracker. You can find an example at https://www.hobbylobby.ngo/de/spendenlauf2026
Share your fundraiser
We'll provide you with a logo and information material that you can share on social media, in your WhatsApp group or by email to win over donors.
How the donations reach us
After your sports challenge, your supporters will receive the result of your achievement (number of laps, metres of elevation ...), their final donation amount and a personal payment link from us. Please note: donations to Hobby Lobby are tax-deductible if your date of birth is provided when donating.
