Project Send It’s first major fundraising event of 2024 will be a Climb-A-Thon! Yeah, just like the bike-a-thons you did as a kid, except we’ll be climbing. Wait a sec, you’re telling me you never did a bike-a-thon? Well, here’s how it works:
1 Register for the Event (and get your entire crew to register as a team, it’s more fun with friends!)
2 Get your friends, family, coworkers, neighbors to sponsor you. The more you climb, the more money you raise for Project Send It! (Download the pledge sheet here)
3 Show up, climb like it’s your job, have a great time. You can climb with your friends and make new friends
4 Go back to your sponsors and collect the pledge dollars (we can help with that)
What are we raising money for?
All the money raised during the climb-a-thon will be used to enable our programming in the Denver and Portland regions, and to fund our Sendership program for the second half of 2024.
What to expect on May 18th
Denver
Denver will be climbing at The Spot Thornton from 9am until 6pm, you’ll climb as many routes as you can. During the day, we’ll have food and drinks available to all participants. At 6 pm we’ll recognize the climbers that climbed the most routes and raised the most money for Project Send It!
The Spot Thornton has an extra special challenge, there is a $500 bounty on a crack route called Flared Crack. Legend has it, this was once climbed by the great Tommy Caldwell and never since. Be the first to send it on video and claim your $500! Read More Here

Portland will be climbing at Movement Portland from 10am until 3pm, you’ll climb as many routes as you can. During the day, we’ll have food and drinks available to all participants. At 3pm we’ll recognize the climbers that climbed the most routes and raised the most money for Project Send It!
