Climbing Mountains is an adventure mentoring program designed to provide
disadvantaged high school students the opportunity to ski and snowboard. The Portland based organization is a 501(c)3 non
profit whose goal is provide participants with discounted ski tickets, lessons, and equipment. Climbing Mountains
is currently involved in fundraising efforts as we are striving to cover all costs of the program, including transportation.
During our first year of operation, Climbing Mountains will be providing
ten students with the opportunity to ski or snowboard at Sunday River four times between January and March. Climbing Mountains is working
with the Greater Portland Boys and Girls Club to recruit students who would be a good fit for this program. The goal
of the organization is to grow and expand with each succeeding year to build on our services and the population we serve.
Currently the organization is looking to raise just over
$5,000 to run a successful winter program. Fundraising efforts and grant opportunities are in place and being sought after.
All donations are tax deductable and greatly appreciated.
