Climbing for Cancer

 
 

Join Us in the Fight Against Cancer!

Each summer, we challenge ourselves against a 14,000-foot mountain in Colorado to collect funds for a noble cause—fighting cancer, a worthy opponent. 

In 2024, we raised a whopping $68,321 to support cancer research and provide direct aid to one of our own in their fight against cancer. On August 3, 2024, Boulder Karate students, dedicated parents, and friends hiked to the top of Huron Peak (14,004')—Colorado's newly deemed shortest 14er!

Climbing for Cancer 2024

In 2024, we dedicated our efforts to support Master Randolph's sister, Katrina. At 16, she first battled brain cancer and inspired us to start Climbing for Cancer. Recently, she's faced another tough challenge with a new diagnosis. Together with her husband Tyler, they're fighting again, and they need our support more than ever. Read more about their story and contribute directly to their fund here.

Our Journey

Since 2011, Boulder Karate has raised donations for cancer research, culminating in an annual climb of a Colorado Fourteener. To date, we've raised $56,846. This year, we're aiming to reach our most ambitious goal yet: $25,000 in one season to provide substantial support to our very own Katrina and her family, as well as continuing our support for the American Cancer Society.

Our Annual Fundraiser

Our fundraiser reaches a peak (you know we love puns!) when we hike a Colorado 14er. Stay tuned for more details about our next event in 2025.

Support our efforts by:

  • Making a donation directly to Katrina and Tyler's fund, helping cover medical expenses and support their family during this challenging time. Donate here.
