About The Kirstie Ennis Foundation

The Kirstie Ennis Foundation’s mission is to inspire individuals to stubbornly climb the mountain in front of them. We aim to show the world that we control our circumstances, they don’t control us. We are a 501(c)3 that: – Provides education, opportunity, and healing in the outdoors through recreational clinics and expeditions – Introduces new and recycled medical device technology to underserved communities of the countries we climb in. – Evenly distributes funding among well-known climbing destinations and lesser known mountains TKEF has sponsored athletes to climb some of the highest mountains, held an adaptive off-road clinic for a childhood cancer survivor, and a Sit-ski clinic for a combat wounded and paralyzed Army Master Sergeant. TKEF holds numerous group clinics, including Women Veteran Snowboarding Clinics, Amputee Rock Climbing Clinics, and a Amputee and Veteran Mountain Biking Clinic. With each clinic, we provide an all expense paid trip to the beautiful Roaring Fork Valley of Colorado and several days of instruction in a specific outdoor recreation. Every clinic participant is gifted with the gear needed to continue the new recreational therapy to their heart's content. TKEF is unique, because we are building a family within the foundation and connect all of our past and present participants to build a network of support across the country. Your donation and support helps us inspire perseverance and encourage the potential of every person that becomes a part of the TKEF family.
