One Summit

One Summit’s mission is to build resilience and facilitate growth in pediatric cancer patients and their siblings through mentorship, experiential learning, storytelling and community engagement with U.S. Navy SEALs. Through the Climb for Courage program, pediatric cancer patients and their siblings are matched 1:1 with US Navy SEALs (Active Duty, Retired, or Separated) and guided through a series of rock-climbing challenges and a curriculum based on teamwork, goal setting, overcoming adversity and reflection. The program outcome facilitates a long-lasting relationship which provides each warrior match with the additional source of strength and encouragement they need in their fight, whether it is physical side effects (cancer treatment or combat), personal trauma, bereavement, psycho/social challenges or long-term medical disabilities.
