Welcome to the fifth year of Peaks with a Purpose! Peaks combines our love for skiing with the joy found inspiring people to do good in the world. We challenge ourselves to ski 40k vertical feet in one day. It's both a marathon and a sprint, requiring nonstop skiing for seven hours.
In the first four years our participants have raised over $120k! Our past fundraising has supported civilian victims in the Ukraine, US veterans, mental health, environmental preservation, ski equipment for underprivileged children, and many more deserving organizations. Our goal this year is for all participants to ski over 2 million combined vertical feet and raise over $70k!
Our selected organization this year is ThinkGive:
ThinkGive empowers youth with research-based social and emotional learning (SEL) programs, inspiring kids to build character, confidence, empathy, and connection through intentional acts of kindness and reflection. They work with schools and youth groups to help students take positive actions that strengthen relationships and well-being. ThinkGive’s impact shows in thousands of students reporting greater empowerment, connection, and kindness in their classrooms and communities.
On Friday, March 20th, a group of us will conquer 40k feet at Killington. If you'd like to support us and our cause, please donate any amount you can. All donations are tax-deductible. If donating through a Donor Advised Fund, you can do so directly through your provider using ThinkGive's tax ID of 46-1826783 and please include Peaks with a Purpose in your note. Just as importantly, please pass this link along to your friends/family who enjoy skiing/boarding or have a vested interest in showing children the power of kindness so future generations can spread more joy and learn how to build better connections.
Thank you for your support. We will loop back to all our supporters with the results of our adventure and the positive impact we all will have made together.
