There are many reasons. Walkers can form teams. The fundraising limit is lower; the total of the team is what counts (not individual) and prizes will be given to teams. Also, there will be benefits of walking and talking with a group sharing the ups and downs of life over the many hours of training.

5 person team - $4,500 minimum
10 person team - $9,000 minimum

Team names can be as varied as you imagination. Pick a name that means something to you or your group. A team may be named after someone you are walking I honor or in memory of. Or, the team name can be extremely personal to you or your group or as whimsical as you would like (a shoe type or brand).
