The 17th Annual Summit for Life Uphill Race

  • Aspen Mountain CO, 81611 United States (map)

The 2022 Summit for Life is in-person AND virtual!  Join us for this year's 17th Annual "Kickoff to Winter!" 

The Chris Klug Foundation's annual Summit for Life is a nighttime uphill race up Aspen Mountain, and one of the biggest fundraisers of the year for the Chris Klug Foundation (CKF). Our mission is to raise awareness of the lifesaving gift of organ, eye and tissue donation. By participating in Summit for Life (S4L), you are helping us spread this message and make a difference for the 106,000 people awaiting a transplant in the United States today.  Each participant who raises the $100 minimum—either in-person or virtually—will receive a racer bag that includes gift cards, CKF swag, prizes, and more!  (Don't feel limited by the fundraising minimum, we encourage racers to go above and beyond!  We are here to support your efforts--please reach out to us for ideas, strategies, tips, tricks, and tools!)
