Supporting Education Beyond the Classroom

Cold Summit Giving is committed to expanding educational access through hands-on, experiential learning—particularly in outdoor and environmental programs. By funding field experiences, outdoor classrooms, and enrichment initiatives, we help students connect with the world around them, fostering curiosity, confidence, and a lifelong love of learning in the communities we serve.

Food Security

Advancing Local Food Security

Cold Summit Giving supports food banks and nutrition programs that serve underserved communities, helping ensure consistent access to healthy, reliable meals. By investing in local food security initiatives, we work to reduce hunger, support families, and build stronger, more resilient communities—reinforcing the vital role of the cold chain in everyday life.
