GiveBIG 2025

The need to connect people to each other and the natural world has never been greater. When you GiveBIG to The Mountaineers, you support a volunteer-powered community that builds belonging, teaches responsible outdoor recreation, and activates lifelong defenders of our public lands. Your GiveBIG donation helps break down barriers to the outdoors, creating more opportunities for all people to explore and protect the PNW and beyond.

Last year, GiveBIG donors and sponsors raised $11.5 million for 1,518 nonprofit organizations across Washington State. Early giving opens on April 22, 2025. Visit Washington Gives to find The Mountaineers and hundreds of other participating organizations working to better our community, and schedule your GiveBIG donation today! 

MAKE A GIVEBIG DONATION

Our vision is that our adventures extend beyond the reach of our own personal enjoyment, one where all people can confidently enjoy – and are inspired to protect – the natural world. This is only possible thanks to the generosity of Mountaineers members and volunteers. 

Add a dedication to your donation

When you think about our vision to Adventure with Purpose, is there a member or volunteer that comes to mind? Has a Mountaineer included or inspired you in a way that you’d like to recognize? 

You can make a GiveBIG donation in their honor and send a message of gratitude. We’ll even help deliver your message if you don’t know their email! Get started on The Mountaineers GiveBIG page.

A special matching opportunity: every donation counts

A Mountaineers member has offered to give $1,000 for every 10 unique GiveBIG donors between April 22 and May 7. Our goal: 100 donors and $10,000 matched.  

Will you support outdoor education and conservation, and help meet the match?
