WE ARE BACK FOR THE 2ND ANNUAL CLIMB FOR THE KIDS!


On Saturday, July 25th, my climbing buddy Steve Jackson and I are going to reach for the peak of Mt. Huron, one of the most scenic 14ers in Colorado (14,009 ft.) to raise money for children and teens fighting cancer!


Our First Annual Climb for the Kids, held last year on Mt. Elbert, raised an impressive $3,300 to benefit brave young cancer patients nationwide. Thanks to that amazing support from our generous donors, this year we are determined to continue the momentum with our climb of Mt. Huron.


I estimate we will take about 30,000 steps round trip during this climb. Can we share this with the world and raise $1 for every step we take? Your support will help buy a lot of toys for these kids to help them smile during this difficult time in their lives.


100% of the proceeds will provide toys, gifts and gift cards to children and teens fighting cancer all across the nation by means of The Pediatric Oncology Treasure Chest Foundation. Any amount that you can contribute will be welcome and go a long way to help Put a Smile on the Face of a Child Fighting Cancer!


When I was seven years old I was diagnosed with childhood leukemia. I didn’t know what cancer was but I certainly knew I was scared.  One morning when I was supposed to go to the hospital for treatment, I hid from my mom and exclaimed, “I’m not going anymore!” She could see how confused and frightened I was. So she devised a plan. The next time I was scheduled for treatment my mom came into my room with a box covered in gift wrap and said, “Martin, from now on, every time you are a brave little boy and go through this treatment, I will reward you with a new toy.” Thus the Treasure Chest Foundation was born.


The Pediatric Oncology Treasure Chest Foundation now serves more than 14,000 children and teens in 59 Children’s Cancer Treatment Centers across the nation every single month, including the location closest to Mt. Huron, the Children's Hospital Colorado in Aurora, Colorado! With your support we can ensure that these brave kids can continue to receive their favorite toys for their courage!
