Help Us Help More Kids!

Help us continue to build a strong community, boost physical and mental health and well-being, and foster a lifelong passion for the outdoors through a tax deductible donation.

More than 44% of the youth participating in CCSC programs qualify for free and reduced rate lunch programs. As a 501(c)3 non-profit organization (EIN is 38-2878585), we rely on the generosity of donors to help us remove barriers for all school-age children in our region to learn to ski and snowboard. Your donation will be used to keep our program fees as low as possible and provide scholarships and/or equipment for kids in need. All donations are 100% tax deductible.

We operate due to the generosity of donors like YOU! Donate today to help get more kids outdoors and active all winter.

But donations aren’t the only way to help. You can volunteer, facilitate a corporate sponsorship, spread the word, and even join our team. Your support, in any form, plays a crucial role in ensuring that CCSC can continue its mission of making snowsports accessible to all youth and building a stronger, healthier community.
