Adam “Jester” Grossman's 2020 'Today We Ride' Challenge

Family and Friends:

The Downhill Derelicts are once again riding to increase the accessibility of adaptive sports. We’re teaming up with the Whistler Adaptive Sports Program, a non-profit group that supports sport for life by breaking down the financial, physical and social barriers for individuals with disabilities. With your help over the last three years, we’ve raised over $90,000 for the Whistler Adaptive Sports Program, one of North America’s largest adaptive sports programs. This year our group goal is to raise $40,000.

I’m asking you to sponsor me in my quest to win the 2020 ‘Today We Ride’ Challenge in which I am competing against 35 other skiers and snowboarders to raise the most funds. You can support my campaign by pledging any amount per 100-vertical feet I ski during the five-day ski-a-thon. You can also opt to make a one-time flat donation.

Depending on your tax deduction objectives, one-time donations are tax-deductible immediately and a pledge will be calculated and effective as of March 14, 2020. Regardless of your option, I pledge to earn every penny we raise with sweat, grit, and knowing that what we are doing together makes big impacts in the lives of adaptive athletes, their families, and communities.

Follow my fundraising progress on the Today We Ride Challenge leaderboard.

Examples of pledge calculations:

• ($0.01 per 100-vertical feet) x (100,000 vertical feet skied) = $10 donation

• ($0.05 per 100-vertical feet) x (100,000 vertical feet skied) = $50 donation

• ($0.10 per 100-vertical feet) x (100,000 vertical feet skied) = $100 donation

• ($0.25 per 100-vertical feet) x (100,000 vertical feet skied) = $250 donation

Thank you for your generosity!
