Stop the Bleed
We have partnered with the Davis family and the University of Vermont Medical Center on an initiative to provide life-saving bleeding control kits to programs and coaches through the United States. Jonathan Davis suffered a critical laceration from his ski edge after it released in a crash in 2018.

Advocacy
We advocate for safety at various alpine ski races around the country, particularly the Killington World Cup.
