Fundraising Climbs
Rise Together, Climb For Change.
​
SheJumps Fundraising Climbs are about more than summits. They are about courage, connection, and climbing for a cause. With expert women guides and the support of teammates, women come together to take on big mountains-lifting one another every step of the way.
​
These climbs challenge you physically, mentally, and emotionally, while raising vital funds to support the SheJumps mission. From your very first donation to your final steps off the mountain, you will be part of the Girafficorn community-proving just how powerful women can be when we rise together.

Mt. Rainier

The June and July 2026: SheJumps Rainier Fundraising Climbs are full. Grab your spot on the waitlist or explore our other fundraising climbs.
At 14,411 feet, Mt. Rainier (Tahoma) is the crown jewel of the Cascades-the most extensively glaciated peak in the continental United States and the highest mountain on any SheJumps climb. In 2026, we'll offer two Fundraising Climbs on this legendary peak, each promising a true mountaineering experience and incredible group camaraderie.
​
Along the way, professional women guides provide all necessary training on the mountain, giving you more time to soak in Rainier's towering glaciers and alpine beauty. Rainier stands as the ultimate challenge of the SheJumps Fundraising Climbs: both demanding, breathtaking, and unforgettable.

Join the SheJumps Legacy at The Grand.
The Grand Teton (Dae Wunt) is where SheJumps' Fundraising Climb tradition began, and joining this ascent means becoming part of both our history and the legacy of American alpinism. At 13,775 feet, it is one of the most iconic peaks in the country and the second-highest in Wyoming.
