The challenge helps Western Australian school students discover the joy of generosity and raise funds for Telethon.
The 2026 challenge will run from Monday 20 April to Friday 4 September.
The challenge is open to every school in WA to raise funds for sick, vulnerable and disadvantaged children across the state.
Top school fundraisers across 3 size categories will win a behind-the-scenes experience at the Telethon weekend on Saturday 17 and Sunday 18 October 2026 at RAC Arena, or a Fat Cat visit to their school.
Join us in inspiring the next generation of community leaders and supporting Telethon’s vital work to improve the lives of WA’s most disadvantaged children. To find out more, visit
