IN THE NEWS: Vail plans six-figure donation to Wasatch Back trails

by

Wasatch back trails are getting a larger-than-usual cash infusion this year from Vail Resorts Epic Promise grant funds.

Vail’s charitable giving arm announced it’s committed to spending about $200,000 to expand and improve trails where its employees live.

Lora Smith is the executive director of Park City’s Mountain Trails Foundation. She says since 2016, Vail Resorts has donated $1 through its Epic Promise foundation for every online Park City Mountain transaction.

The foundation has used the money for operating budgets and trail maintenance.

She says donations have increased over the last couple of years. As a result, Smith’s organization is now sharing the windfall, which should come by September, with other non-profits.

“And so we started out at you know, tens of thousands. And now we’re up into hundreds of thousands,” Smith said. “So the money has increased significantly. And so we feel like it’s just the right thing to do to spread that into the outlying areas, where the people who work in the resorts often live.”

IN THE NEWS: PCMR, Mountain Trails Foundation partnership expands to other trail groups

by

Nonprofits in Kamas and Heber City will soon benefit from Vail Resorts grant program

“We’re really grateful to PCMR and Vail’s EpicPromise for allowing this vision to bubble up. We’re super excited about that,” Smith said. “Mountain Trails is proud to be the funding mechanism that allows a public amenity like our trails system to exist and thrive. We are just such a fortunate community.”

A longstanding partnership between the Mountain Trails Foundation and Park City Mountain Resort has led to a new collaboration that will benefit area nonprofits with a similar mission.

As the community partner of PCMR, Mountain Trails Foundation receives a donation every year through parent company Vail Resorts EpicPromise Foundation. The charitable initiative gives $1 from every online transaction to the Park City-based nonprofit. A recent increase in proceeds inspired Mountain Trails Foundation to give the extra money to other trail organizations.
