Great Charity Challenge
sponsored by Fidelity Investments®
- $2+ million distributed to Palm Beach County Charities -
In its 16th year, the Great Charity Challenge sponsored by Fidelity Investments® (GCC) continues to shine as an inspiring example of how sporting events can serve as a powerful vehicle for positive change. Thanks to the unwavering generosity and support of sponsors and donors, this year’s event raised over $2 million, benefitting a grand total of 80+ organizations.
On February 1, ‘Saturday Night Lights’ at Wellington International came alive with energy, creativity and a shared spirit of philanthropy as 35 teams took part in an unforgettable night of show jumping. Each team consisted of three riders, ranging from the young, rising stars of the sport to Olympians, showcasing the incredible diversity and depth of talent within Wellington’s equestrian community.
