We always wanted ColorCloud to be not "just" another tech event, we wanted to do more around it. That's how the ColorChallenge was born - our big charity event! 🥳 With ColorChallenge we want to combine our big passion - color - with doing something good. It all started by asking people from the community: "What would it take for you to color your hair to make the event brighter?"

It's was Carl Cookson who came up with the following bet: "If you can raise 1000 € for a charity of my choosing, I will dye my hair in a color of your choosing!" Genius! As soon as word got out, more people wanted in on this and here we are! We proudly present to you 10+ MVPs, Community Members and Microsofties who have committed to this. Some didn't like hair dye - we are choosing a colorful tattoo for them. 😁

Thanks to all ColorAmbassadors for participation and of course every support who helped us reach the funding goal with a total of 10.210€ donated! You can find the details from last year on the Betterplace page we used for the donations Betterplace - ColorChallenge 2024
