Help us reach our goal to show your support of free and affordable access to outdoor education and year-round recreation. 

This giving season marks Tahoe Cross-Country Ski Education's 26th year. Since we established TCCSEA as a non-profit in 1999, our mission to provide affordable access to outdoor education and year-round recreation has remained steadfast and our program participation has grown exponentially from around 200 to over 2000 yearly participants. Our programs rely on a combination of grants and donations to operate. We need your donations to keep programs free and affordable. Tahoe XC has created a home where recreation and environmental stewardship grow together, where we welcome community partnerships and challenge ourselves to meet the needs of our local youth. This year, we remember not only how we got here, but where we are going. Together, we can ensure that Tahoe XC's legacy as a community host, preserving and enhancing shared outdoor experiences continues. 

Make an Impact Today

A donation made today will help TCCSEA operate youth programs now. It is only through donations like yours that we are able to offer free and low cost programs. All year long, TCCSEA focuses on creating opportunities for adults and children to experience outdoor education and year round recreation, ensuring that no one has to allow financial burdens to limit their access to the outdoors.
