SHEJUMPS' GOAL is to provide an annual grant to women that are working in the outdoors, creating art about the environment, etc.—basically doing something that extends our mission.

Right now, however, we don't have a ton of cash...so we created the Gear Grant Program

The goal of the SheJumps Gear Grant Program is to collect outdoor gear and create a lending system to provide appropriate outdoor equipment for women. At this stage in our development, our library is snow-sports based and our library of gear consists of alpine skiing boots, telemark skiing boots, skis with both alpine and telemark setups and one lonely snowboard. It is our goal to find good homes for these pieces of equipment, all in an effort to do what SheJumps does, increase and inspire the participation of women in outdoor activities. If you or someone you know is in need of gear as the missing link to their involvement in the outdoors, please fill out the following questionnaire and copy and paste it into an email. Send to geargrant@shejumps.com. We look forward to hearing from you! Your application will be reviewed by the Board of Directors at our next meeting.

What is it about SheJumps that inspires you?

 

What we ask for at SheJumps to give you this gear is the commitment to sharing your experiences on the gear that we give you. It is important that other females can see the positive effects on life after making the concentrated to effort to get outside. What this means is that we would like you apply for this gear grant with dedication to use the gear as your personal motivation to continue “jumping” and leading a healthy lifestyle. Additionally, we ask you to document your use of the gear with stories or pictures that we can use on our website to help our programming and support grow.

 

Final question (and it’s a doozy):

What would you dare to accomplish if you knew success was the only possible outcome?
