2022 CLIMBATHON

 

On March 5th, the Vertical World Climbing Team will be attempting an epic Climbathon to raise money to benefit Vertical World Climbing Team Fund. They will be "Climbing Around the World", attempting to climb a total height of 6064 feet - the equivalent of climbing nine iconic buildings around the world! This includes buildings on every continent, including the world's tallest building, the Burj Khalifa.

 

No matter what your sport, it's not cheap being an elite youth athlete. And climbing is no exception. At Vertical World Team Fund we fundraise for and support the Vertical World Youth Climbing Team. Based at Vertical World in Washington, our athletes train and compete at the highest levels. You'll see them competing and on the podium at local, national and international competitions.

 

Your support helps us to provide financial support to the athletes and team - so that everyone has the opportunity to compete and reach their potential regardless of their background, personal or financial situation.

 

Donations of any amount would truly make a difference and be greatly appreciated.

 

Thank you for your support.
