All participating campuses are recognized for joining the Challenge and making a commitment to increasing student voting rates and helping students form the habits of active and engaged citizenship. Campuses with student voting rates of 50% and above will earn seals, and campuses with exemplary efforts will win awards.
That's one prize package that Fanatics founder Michael Rubin has offered to tip off the All In Challenge, a virtual fundraising effort spearheaded by the co-owner of the Philadelphia 76ers and New Jersey Devils, along with colleagues Alan Tisch and Gary Vaynerchuk.
Rubin is also throwing in a $100,000 Fanatics gift card for his prize.
The challenge, started by Rubin on Tuesday, hopes to raise millions of dollars to provide food for children, the elderly and frontline workers during the coronavirus crisis via five charities: Meals on Wheels, No Kid Hungry, America's Food Fund, World Central Kitchen and Feeding America.
A collection of the world's most famous athletes, celebrities, artists, entertainers, teams and owners have been challenged by friends and colleagues to provide something memorable for fans. They will unveil their donations on social media over the next several days, with 100% of the money going to the charities.
They will follow their donations with a challenge to others to offer something of their own. Some items will be up for auction; others will be "enter to win."
"I believe when the world faces a crisis, businesses and sports have an obligation to step up and make a difference," Rubin said as part of the kickoff to the fundraiser.
Several auction items were posted as the challenge got started, including spending a day with Magic Johnson (with a game of HORSE at Staples Center).
Other auction items include:
A "double date" with
Zach and Julie Ertz (including a 76ers game)
-
A 2018 Rolls-Royce Phantom owned by rapper Meek Mill
Peyton Manning flying to your hometown, playing golf with you and two friends, and hosting dinner for you and 10 friends at a local restaurant
A foursome of golf including
Bubba Watson and
Denny Hamlin, plus a trip to the 2021 Daytona 500, including a ride with Hamlin on the track
Shaquille O'Neal playing a 3-on-3 pickup game with you and four friends

Among the "enter to win" prizes thus far:
Later Tuesday, former New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning entered the mix, donating the Corvette he received for winning the 2012 Super Bowl MVP award. Manning will drop the car off for the winner. The opening bid was $10,000

More and more celebrities are joining in the "All In Challenge," which was kicked off by Fanatics founder and Executive Chairman Michael Rubin on Tuesday.
The challenge is simple: celebrities offer once-in-a-lifetime experiences fans can win by simply donating as little as $10 to COVID-19 relief.
Justin Bieber decided that, instead of offering up some memorabilia or a role in his next music video, he offered up something else entirely -- himself.
"I am going to auction off a cool experience where I fly to the winner's home and I sing them 'One Less Lonely Girl,'" the "Yummy" singer announced in a video on Tuesday. "I think this can be a cool opportunity and it'll be fun for me!"
In the caption, he added he might just serenade the lucky winner with "a few other" songs, too. He also said he was inspired to donate the experience because many fans have been asking for it.
