Need to maintain the integrity of the checkbox

New to the list, thanks in advance. I have created a form that lists the possible sponsorships of various events. I need to keep the names of the checkbox to identify the specific event, but the value is a dollar amount that needs to pass thru to the checkout area function. Without creating an array that would loose the events names (some events have the same dollar amount), how can I capture the dollar value(s) checked an pass them to the checkout form?
