About Us

 

The U.S. Ski and Snowboard Team Foundation is the non-profit fundraising arm of the U.S. Ski Team, U.S. Snowboarding and U.S. Freeskiing. Incorporated in 1964 as a 501(c) 3, the Foundation raises money to support year-round athlete training, development, competition and educational needs.

 

The U.S. Ski Team, U.S. Snowboarding and U.S. Freeskiing are the only teams on the international circuit that receive no federal funding or subsidy monies and operate solely through private donations from individuals, corporations and foundations. The record breaking achievements (21 medals!) of our U.S. athletes at the 2010 Olympic Winter Games would not have been possible without the support of these private donors. By giving to the U.S. Ski and Snowboard Team Foundation, you help make our athlete's Olympic dreams a reality and share their success.

 

The money raised by the Foundation supports athletes in all disciplines of the U.S. Ski Team and U.S. Snowboarding including alpine, cross country, freestyle, jumping, nordic combined, snowboarding and the newly formed U.S. Freesking Team. Building on the success of the 2010 Olympic Winter  Games in Vancouver, we are looking not only to support our current athletes, but to plan for the next generation of skiers and boarders watching at home and dreaming of the time they will stand on the podium to represent the United States.

 

Donations to the Team are tax deductible to the extent allowed by the law.
