The Climbing for Kids charity event is on a mission to raise awareness and funds around the Pediatric Mental Health crisis and support our kids and youth of Colorado. 

 Our 2023 goal is to raise $110,000 to reach our $1million fundraising total since the inaugural event 18 years ago when Jeffrey Pearl and I led our first climb.

The "Million Dollar Climb" will be held Friday, August 4th...please join us...we'll be climbing one of the best mountains in Colorado, Mt. Bierstadt; benefitting the Pediatric Mental Health Institute (PMHI) of Children's Hospital Colorado. 

Suicide is a leading cause of death among Colorado youth ages 10-24 years old. We have seen a 103% increase in mental health visits to Children’s Colorado emergency department from January to March 2022 compared with the same period in 2019, before the pandemic began.

Thank you for supporting Children's Hospital Colorado.  Your contribution is greatly appreciated.
