How do you enter? 

There is a £5 minimum donation to enter, but the more you give, the more will be doing to help support fundraisers who have been relying on SOFII for knowledge and inspiration throughout the pandemic. 

Don’t miss out, sign up today.

Every penny raised will help us add new free resources to SOFII.org and reach more fundraisers around the world, whether they work in teams of one or 100. 

Show you care about fundraisers by inviting your friends and teammates to join in too!

How does it work? 

After you sign up and make your donation, you’ll receive a link and unique access code that you will need to play the quiz. Then on Friday June 4th at 1pm, grab your sandwich, salad or just a pack of biscuits if you feel like it (you won’t be on screen, we will never know!). 

Follow the link in your email (www.warppoint.net/SOFII) and log in with your four-digit code. Then just wait for your host Joe Burnett to start the quiz. 

To maximise your fun we recommend watching Joe’s live stream on your computer via our YouTube channel while simultaneously playing the quiz on your phone. It’s the best of both worlds. 

BUT, if you can’t watch the live stream, no worries! Just join via the link on your computer or phone and play along. You will miss Joe’s jokes, but hey.... some might say this is a good thing! 

You get points for every correct answer PLUS bonus points if you answer quickly. So, speed really can help you climb to the top of our leader board. 

At the end of our 20 questions we’ll reveal our 1st, 2nd and 3rd prize winners as well as our top donor! Then post-quiz we’ll email our bonus prize winner too. 

Don’t miss this super event, it’s sure to be lots of fun. Please join us!
