Catalyst Sports

Catalyst Sports is a chapter based, volunteer run, 501c3 non-profit organization that acts as an agent of change in the lives of people with disabilities and our communities. Adventure sports provide a fun and exciting platform for challenging ourselves mentally, physically and emotionally. When this challenge takes place alongside a supportive and encouraging community of people, we all discover our abilities, our need for each other and the importance of living active and healthy lives.

Donations from the Ugly Sweater Run would be used directly in Asheville to support adaptive climbing and adaptive mountain biking programs for individuals with physical disabilities. We could update equipment, provide t-shirts for our volunteers and supplement training costs with funds raised.
