How Does A Watch-A-Thon Work? If you’ve ever participated in a walk-a-thon you know the drill. Find sponsors in your community to pledge certain amount of money per movie you watch or you can ask them to pledge a fixed amount for you participation in the event! The more sponsors you find the more money you raise! You can watch 13 movies in a row or come and go as you please, but the more movies you watch the better!
