In the Spring of 2002, the
Kate Svitek Memorial Foundation was established. The Foundation's
goal is to provide financial support to individuals, groups,
and various institutions whose interests and goals align
with Kate's hopes and dreams. The primary focus is to
promote and help underwrite a range of activities and
education principally related to outdoor and wilderness
exploration, study, observation, preservation, improvement,
and enhancement. Since its inception, the Foundation has
awarded ten scholarships to National Outdoor Leadership
School (NOLS), two annual Scholarships to the University
of Vermont School of Natural Resources, 25 scholarships
to North Carolina Outward Bound, a Grant to resource,
an EarthSmart education program in Oregon and a grant
to Macrieb Consultant Youth Wilderness Education Program.
Additionally, a community event featuring Erik Weihenmayer,
world reknown blind mountain climber was presented in
Spring, 2004 and Aron Ralston, natural survivalist, was
featured in in our 2006 event.
