the 1010 challenge 

The 1010 Challenge is a simple concept. HOPEHIV gives you a tenner and gives you three options of what to do with it:
10 pound note specimen
  1.  Accept the challenge and find a way to turn it into £100 and give the money back to HOPEHIV
  2. Reject the challenge and return the tenner
  3. Keep it, if you need it more than the orphaned children and vulnerable young people HOPEHIV helps in Africa

i've accepted the challenge. what now?   

[QLIKKIES - please qlik here to reach information tailored to your 1010 Challenge from Qollaborations 2012.]

Before you start, ask yourself…

1. What’s the Big Idea (product/service and how it will make money)? How can you refine it?
2. Who will help you and have they agreed to do so? Do you need anyone’s permission before you proceed?
3. How will you advertise and motivate people to buy from you?
HOPEHIV funded tailoring train
4. What risks are there and how will you mitigate them?
5. How much will it cost? If more than £10, will you reinvest profit from the first £10 or use your own money?
 
We've put together a worked example here. If you have any questions about the Challenge, please contact info@hopehiv.org. There are also some helpful fundraising tips here.

How do I get the money back to hopehiv? 

Hard work pays

 

Not sure what to do with the fruits of your 1010 Challenge? Please send your money through to us using the gift form - cash has a tendency to go missing in the post. Mark the envelope with  your organisation name and country so we know which 1010 Challenge you took part in. If you used a sponsor form remember to include it so we know who to thank.

Albert Lazarus
We see hope in Albert, Terry and Lenny.

Albert, Terry and Lenny were all selected for HOPEHIV-funded training programme in mid 2008. They were all from difficult backgrounds and at risk of ending up on the streets to survive. The six month course taught them carpentry and farming and gave them the skills for starting up and running a small business. Once they graduated, each boy was given start up capital of £50. Albert, Terry and Lenny presented a business plan to grind and sell paprika. Within one month they had doubled their pooled capital of £150 to make £300. They then split up, each taking £100. Terry used his to pay his fees so he could return to school. Lenny used his to pay for driving lessons so he could get a job as a driver. Albert continued with the paprika business and also set up a second business - operating a community phone booth (pictured).
