To honor Madison's legacy her moms and dad are committed to supporting Extreme Mobility Camps, an outstanding 501(c)(3) non-profit that ignited Madison's passion to pay it forward. She had been a trainer/camp counselor for five camps: the last two camps amazingly after her chordoma cancer metastasized while she was receiving experimental treatments in San Francisco. More about her experiences at their Winter Camp and Summer Camp during their 2017 season.
About XMO: they use action sports to challenge, support, and empower blind youth to reach their full potential, a brief video here. While Madison was inspiring to so many people, it was the contagious spirit of the Extreme Mobility organization that ignited her passion to give of herself and really make a difference.
You can help support Madison's legacy by donating in her name at this link. The donation link/process is SSL encrypted for security, and 100% of the tax-free donations go explicitly to the cost of hosting the youth camps. Note for the February 2018 Winter Camp there are 46 blind and/or visually impaired youth applicants for Winter Park in Colorado this Feb-March. The decisions while painful are simple: reduce the activities to reduce costs, hope for more donations, limit the number of youth, or the founders Bryan and Mindy personally go in to the red.
