HOTS has raised over $3 million since inception.
HOTS is a fun, competitive, family-friendly event. Individuals of all ages and skills are welcome to participate. Individuals and teams of up to 15 participants compete for top fundraising and most vertical feet or continued participation on the hour awards. Hope on the Slopes, Ski & Ride for a Cure combines fun and enjoyment on the slopes with the passion to help find a cure for cancer.
