Welcome to the fundraiser page for the 4th Annual DRINK WATER RAT RACE

Here we'll be compiling donations generated through Rat Race sponsors, riders as well as your individual donations.

This year we expect to again raise well over 20k once all is said and done!! (It takes a little bit to compile all donations). In the meantime, if you like the cause, like the Rat Race, or just want to be a part of something, we encourage you to make a donation and help us raise money for this worthy cause.

Thank you!

A little info on the Rat Race:

The Rat Race is presented by DRINK WATER is a summertime snowboard race, held at Timberline Ski Resort on the Palmer Glacier high atop Mt. Hood, Oregon at High Cascade Snowboard Camp.

It is banked slalom meets hell track -- borrowing from the Legendary Mt Baker Banked Slalom, Dirksen Derby and adding a bit of BMX's "Rad Racing," the Rat Race is a timed race through gates, berms, and obstacles.

The snowboard community's most talked about event of the summer, the Rat Race includes Olympians, X-Games winners, banked-slalom-race champs, rail kids, office jocks and random heroes bent on glory.

In its 4th year, the Rat Race is Drink Water's top fundraising event, raising money for water.org!

Check out the rundown from this year:

From water.org:

"Around the world, 750 million men, women and children need access to safe water. This negatively impacts their health, keeps children from attending school, and traps millions of people in a cycle of poverty. This all changes when solutions to access safe water are implemented."

We know there are a lot of worthy charities out there. We’ve created this fundraiser through Water.org because we believe safe water is necessary for life. It's a statement we make and the water crisis is something we feel we can help solve. We hope you agree by giving whatever amount you can to support our efforts.

For every $25 that we raise, Water.org can give someone access to safe water. Co-founded by Matt Damon and Gary White, Water.org has been helping people develop sustainable solutions for more than 20 years. Together, we can change lives with safe water.
