Nick's Kismet Half Marathon Fundraiser
Tax deductible
Kismet is an incredible organization based in North Conway, New Hampshire that provides a setting for kids to engage with peers and adults in a stable home environment to develop and hone their emotional and relational skills while rock climbing during the day. The same group is brought back for one week each summer for four years, it's unlike anything I've ever heard of and it does an incredible job at expanding the perspectives and experiences of the kids that are involved. The program costs nothing to the participants so it is these kinds of donations that keep it going.
From the website:
Kismet Rock Foundation nourishes the physical, intellectual and emotional development of rural and urban children throughout New England before they enter their formative teen years. Our success in saving children is accomplished by providing scholarships for a comprehensive education in technical rock climbing within the context of a stable and loving family-like atmosphere.
