2012 Trivia Challenge

Every year the United Cerebral Palsy Association of Nassau County, Inc holds a county-wide Trivia Challenge event at our center here in Roosevelt. Trivia Challenge is an academic fundraising event that combines education, philanthropy and a good time. Since the events inception, Nassau County students, teachers and administrators have helped thousands of children and adults with disabilities served by ucpn. Trivia Challenge, currently celebrating its 27th Anniversary, takes place on the Elementary, Junior High, and High School levels. It is one of ucpn’s most successful and exciting fundraisers. The competition is known as the event “where students with great minds and good hearts raise funds for ucpn.”

The ucpn Development Department sends trivia tests to teachers throughout Nassau County who then administer them to their students. Participating students, in teams of four, take the 100-question Trivia Challengesm written test. It covers a wide variety of subjects from academics to popular culture. The test takes approximately 45 minutes to complete and can be administered any time starting in October through the beginning of February. Students raise money for ucpn by asking their family and friends to sponsor them to take the test and we offer students many exciting fundraising prizes. The highest scoring team from each school is then invited to compete in the county-wide Trivia Challenge Championship held at our agency. The winning team on each level receives the Trivia Challenge trophy to display in their school for a year.
