DONATE TO SUPPORT
Support our work to help keep thousands of alpine ski racers every season safer on course, and to keep safety top of mind for coaches and race officials.
Why we do it:
What does it mean to be committed to safety?
The Kelly Brush Foundation has been working to improve safety standards in alpine ski racing since 2006, when Kelly sustained a spinal cord injury when she struck an unprotected lift tower in a collegiate ski race.
We have maintained a commitment to eliminating preventable injuries in training and racing by:
- Providing funding to ski clubs across the country to purchase invaluable safety equipment;
- Partnering with US Ski and Snowboard to provide education and training to coaches and race officials to improve course safety;
- Distributing Stop the Bleed Kits at low or no cost to teams, officials and spectators.
