After going to friends, neighbors, relatives, and EVERYBODY you know to ask them to partner with you in supporting one very special child, you will spend one day walking in that child’s name, even wearing the name on your wrist. But that’s not it!


To thank you for your help in the worldwideWalkathon, ICN will be giving out TONS of prizes, including two FREE trips to Uganda so you can meet the child you supported in the walk! Other prizes include private Matsiko parties and performances, t-shirts, CDs, DVDs and much, much more.


All participants will see their efforts come to life in a REAL way. You will receive a letter from the child whose scholarship fund you supported thanking you for your steps to make their future a brighter one. But for those whose help brings in the greatest support, you will see the benefits of this walk in the most tangible ways imaginable.

Giving Back Has Never Been So Good!

2 First Place Prizes: FREE Trip to Uganda!

The top two fundraisers will each win a free trip to Uganda to participate in an ICN service trip! From the bush to the city, your experience in Uganda will forever leave you changed. ICN believes there is no better way for sponsors and supporters to capture the vision of international child advocacy than seeing it for themselves, with their own eyes. The trip will take place in mid to late summer 2009.


4 Second Place Prizes: Private Matsiko Performance

Four second place winners will receive a private performance by world-renowned Matsiko Children’s Choir! Should you win this AMAZING gift, Matsiko staff volunteers will work with you on setting up a performance at a venue of your choosing when Matsiko makes its way through your area during its 2009-2010 tour. Share this prize with 100 of your closest friends, your school or church, or regift the concert to a friend or family member for a wedding or anniversary. Imagine Matsiko performing at your best friend’s wedding!


10 Third Place Prizes: Ultimate Matsiko Gear Box

If you don’t get a free trip to Uganda or a private Matsiko performance, no need to worry. The next top ten support raisers will receive a special delivery of all the Matsiko gear they can imagine: t-shirts, CDs, Matsiko’s DVD, postcards, stickers, and anything else we can think of!


100’s of Random Prizes: Matsiko Ringtones, Song Downloads, Etc.

Participants will be selected at random leading up to and following the worldwideWalkathon to receive free exclusive Matsiko ringtones, song downloads, etc. Register, walk, and enjoy...you might be one of the lucky ones!


Top Five Group Prizes: Exlusive Matsiko Party & Performance

The top five groups that raise the most support for the worldwideWalkathon will win an exclusive Matsiko party, complete with African dance music, snacks, and drinks, followed by a performance at a venue set up by you and Matsiko/ICN staff volunteers. The parties and performances will be scheduled during the 2009-2010 Matsiko tour when the choir travels through your area along their tour route.
