The Cerebral Palsy of Nassau County Trivia Challenge is a fundraising event for students in grades 3-12. During the contest, students are organized in teams of four to take a 100-question test provided by Cerebral Palsy Nassau. Students collect sponsorships from families and friends to donate to the organization and to benefit its programs and services for more than 1,500 children and adults with cerebral palsy.
