About this grant

The Chill Foundation expands access to boardsports and outdoor experiences for young people who might not otherwise have these opportunities. The Chill Foundation’s programs combine experiential learning with mentoring, coaching and a values-based curriculum. During this grant period, funding would support the continuation of Chill’s core programs for youth ages 11–19 and the expansion of Chill Evolution to serve alumni ages 18–26. Continued support would enable Chill to sustain high-quality core programming nationwide while advancing priority strategic goals, including alumni engagement through Chill Evolution. Programming will focus on mentorship, job-readiness support, and ongoing connection to boardsports and the outdoor industry.
