Donald Bearie Climbing Accident Recovery Fund

Donald recently survived a climbing accident during which he completed a climb and while being lowered was dropped. He fractured his wrist, two vertebrates, ankle, and scapula. He is currently waiting to undergo surgery but without insurance or the means to cover the growing medical cost out of pocket. Donald cannot get the attention he needs and deserves towards his road to recovery. We need your help so he can get the lifesaving care he needs.


Donald is a passionate climber. His drive and determination in the mountains are inspiring. He has taken on the mentorship role for climbers in the Front Range and continues to play a vital role in various communities. Please help Donald get back on his feet and into the mountains. 

Donald does not have insurance or the ability to work during his recovery. The emergency care, physical therapy, and overall process toward rehabilitation will be long and expensive.  Whether or not you are able to make a donation,  please share this fundraiser with your network and community. Anything will help and be greatly appreciated!
