Anyone! We are encouraging local and corporate businesses of any kind to participate. While we encourage to nominate your boss, anyone can be nominated to jump. Just raise the $1000 minimum per jumper (or more!) and your nominee is eligible to jump.
The event will take place at WildPlay, Nanaimo on Friday, October 3rd, 2025! Once your team raises the $1000 minimum for their nominated jumper, you can then choose an open jump time in the afternoon of the event day!
Yes, make sure to include your boss in your team. There is no maximum or minimum for the number of team members that can join in, fundraise for, and cheer the nominated person on. However, we encourage the more the merrier!
*every team member does not need to be identified or make a participant profile
First, make sure your company team has not already been registered by another team member. If your team has already been registered, refer to 'How to Join my Company Team' listed below. If your team has not been registered, click the 'Sign Up' tab, and click 'Create a Team' and fill out the form with your company information. Once your company team has been approved, you can begin building your company profile, as well as your participant profile.
*you do not need a participant profile if you are just choosing to add donations to your teams total. Just simply click donate on the home page and select your team.
Follow the 'Sign Up' tab and click 'Join a Team'. Find your company name and click 'Join this Team.'
You can then fill out the form to begin building your individual participant profile.
Once you have created your profile, you can send out your profile link to friends and family or share over any social media platform. Encourage everyone you know to share, share, share!
We will provide some templates for a personalized poster and social media post. The best way to encourage donations is to personalize your profile with a photo and brief description of why your team is participating.
After nominating a designated jumper, each team must fundraise a minimum of $1000 for them to be eligible to toss them for a bungy jump. However, we encourage teams and individuals to raise money beyond the minimum requirement, as we have included an exciting grand prize for the top fundraising team.
The top fundraising team will receive a FREE team building adventure valued at over $800 at WildPlay. The top fundraising team is determined by calculating who raised the most money beyond the $1000 minimum.
For example, if Team A has 2 nominated jumpers and you raise $1850, only 1 of the boss' will be eligible to jump and you've raised $850 above your minimum. And if Team B also has 2 nominated jumpers and you raise a total of $2400, both of the boss' will be eligible to bungy jump, and they've raised $400 above the minimum. In this example Team A would have fundraised more money beyond their minimum requirement. in 2024 Save-On foods won with roughly $6500 raised and 3 bosses tossed... can you beat them!?
If the boss your team nominated doesn't want to bungy jump when you tell them they've been nominated, no problem! Each team should have at least one jumper, but it does not HAVE to be your boss. This fundraising event is meant to spread brain injury awareness and raise funds to support brain injury survivors (tossing our bosses off bridges is only an added bonus)!
HOWEVER, if your nominated boss declines to bungy jump on the day of the event, they are required to match the $1000 minimum in order to get out of their jump requirement to either abstain from the bungy jump entirely or nominate a team member to take their place.
It's no problem for teams to have more than one nominated Boss (jumper), as long as you have raised a minimum of $1000 for each of the jumpers.
For example, if your team has 2 nominated jumpers and you raise $1850, only 1 of the boss' will be eligible to jump.
