Giving Tuesday 2024

December 3 is Giving Tuesday, a global day of giving that inspires millions of people to give, collaborate, and celebrate generosity. Help us raise $30,000 for the Mountaineers Access Program (MAP) scholarship fund. 

Donate

Mark your calendar to donate after Thanksgiving or check it off your list now with an early donation

MAP increases access to outdoor recreation, education, and conservation for youth and adults through scholarships, Mountain Workshops, and more. Scholarships help people of all ages learn new skills and find belonging outdoors. 

It's so important because many people feel outmatched, outclassed, and out of their comfort zone in the wild. The community offered through the Mountaineers is as important, maybe more important, than the costs of actual equipment.

When to donate to have the most impact

Early giving for Giving Tuesday is open NOW. We hope to raise $30,000 for MAP before midnight on Tuesday, December 3, 2024. Any donation on our Giving Tuesday donation page or sent with the note "Giving Tuesday" before then will count!

As a frequent hiker, I value the opportunity to "level-up" up my skills in a safe and informative atmosphere through the scrambling program. So much more of the outside world is now accessible to me given these new skills and I am so grateful. Thank you for helping to keep outdoor sports/activities open to all, regardless of income.
