Together we have had remarkable results; evolving from a four-team backyard event into a multi-media extravaganza raising more than 6.64 million for local charities. Over the 34 Charity Challenges, hundreds of teams from the hospitality and apartment industries have come together for spirited athletic competition in six exciting sporting events for charity. We have also been blessed with thousands of loyal sponsors throughout the years. We are fortunate to have some volunteers participate for more than 20 years. Even our event director, Beatriz Flores, has served the Charity Challenge cause for more than 10 years. With our giving approaching $7 million, it is with a sad, but a joyful heart that I announce that this year, October 2021, will be my and my family's last Charity Challenge. I am so happy to have been able to put on this event for 35 years. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate all of the support of our sponsors, teams, charities, volunteers and staff who have worked tirelessly to execute this event on for so long. It truly has been a dream come true and a cause in which we gave everything for others. Remember, however, we still have work to do. As founder of Charity Challenge, I would like to invite you to be part of this exciting fun-filled event. Become a SPONSOR, compete as a TEAM or even VOLUNTEER your time as we strive to achieve our 7 million goal. Charity Challenge has proven to be a remarkable way companies can receive positive community exposure while providing valuable philanthropic resources to the charity of their choice. This year, as always, our staff and volunteers are committed to making this event a truly memorable and safe experience. The following pages will answer many questions regarding ways you can participate.Whichever way you choose to get involved, I am confident you will be pleased with the benefits this event will bring to your organization and our community. So, come out and join us on Saturday, October 2021 at Camping World Stadium for one last hurrah! Thank you again for your support and service to our community. Sincerely, Mariann Lansing (Lee’s mom), Lee Constantine. Lee Constantine Founder/CEO Since 1987, Charity Challenge has awarded $6,641,000 to Central Florida charities; including $203,000 to 62 charities in 2019.

    SPONSOR A STUDENT SECTIONS GIVE DIGITAL ACCESS Where do students of new UCF/Valencia campus live? Mostly not downtown. By ANNIE MARTIN ORLANDO SENTINEL | AUG 02, 2019 The University of Central Florida and Valencia College students who are to attend the new downtown campus that opens Aug. 26 will largely come from areas outside the downtown core, numbers from the institutions show. (Ricardo Ramirez Buxeda / Orlando Sentinel) The new downtown University of Central Florida and Valencia College campus, a centerpiece of the Creative Village, has been touted as a key part of the city’s revitalization efforts and a source of new opportunities for residents of Parramore and the surrounding areas. But the students who will attend the new campus this fall largely are coming from outlying areas, including Winter Garden, Oviedo and east Orange County, according to an Orlando Sentinel analysis of preliminary numbers from the University of Central Florida and Valencia. But the students who will attend the new campus this fall largely are coming from outlying areas, including Winter Garden, Oviedo and east Orange County, according to an Orlando Sentinel analysis of preliminary numbers from the University of Central Florida and Valencia. Nearly 7,000 students, the majority in their late teens or 20s, have signed up for classes at the new campus, which is slated to open Aug. 26.
