About
Challenge for Charity (C4C) is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization that draws on the talents, energy, and resources of MBA students from 8 West Coast business schools to support Special Olympics, Boys and Girls Clubs, and other family-related local charities. The purpose of the organization is to develop business leaders with a lifelong commitment to community involvement and social responsibility.
The 2023-2024 MBA Challenge for Charity enters its 40th year in which top West Coast MBA programs compete in fundraising, volunteering, and athletic events in pursuit of the coveted Golden Briefcase.

This coveted award goes to the school that achieves the highest score in the following categories:

Alumni Auction
The annual C4C Auction is our biggest fundraising event at Foster. All proceeds go to Special Olympics Washington, Boys and Girls Clubs of King County, and The University District Food Bank. In 2022-23 we raised over $124,000 for these charities. This is possible only because of the generous support from you—our donors, sponsors, and volunteers.
Sponsorship: If you’re interested in sponsoring the event, please reach out to mbac4c@uw.edu
