 Chill Foundation
Making snowboarding accessible to at-risk and underserved kids - many of whom have never been to the mountains - is a big challenge, but one that Burton founder & CEO Jake Burton Carpenter and his wife Donna, Burton's President, chose to take on in 1995. As a result, Burton's Chill Foundation has reached over 17,500 kids around the world with programs that "use snowboarding to motivate youth to accomplish goals they never thought they could, while teaching them some of the most important lessons in life about patience, persistence, responsibility, courage, respect, and pride."
