Prizes and Giveaways

Your Drawdown EcoChallenge points can add up to fun prizes! NWEI will award grand prizes to the teams and individuals with the most points at the end of the EcoChallenge on April 25. We also have prizes up for grabs with EcoChallenge Giveaways happening throughout the challenge. See below for a list of our prizes, and stay tuned for our emails which will announce the Giveaways.

If you're a Team Captain, consider offering incentives for your team too. Our EcoChallenge Store has reusable items that make great prizes, or you can get creative -- baked goods, gift certificates to nearby cafes, and company-wide recognition are other ways to reward your teammates!
