Focal is proud to support Power To Summit, a community fundraising challenge by Power to Be, that brings people together through movement, teamwork, and purpose.
Who is Power To Be?
Power To Be is a Canadian charity that creates access to nature for youth, adults, and families who face cognitive, physical, financial, or social barriers.
Through inclusive outdoor programs, adaptive equipment, and community support, Power To Be helps more people experience the confidence, connection, and wellbeing that come from spending time in nature.
This cause is especially meaningful to our Principal Andy Chong. Andy was involved in the original design of Power To Be’s facilities, and our team was recently there for our ATM. Now, we’re proud to continue that connection by climbing, hiking, and fundraising together over three days.
What is Power To Summit?
Ran from May 29th to May 31st, Power To Summit is a team-based elevation challenge where participants work together to gain height over several days, symbolically climbing toward a major summit while raising funds for Power To Be’s programs.
Participants can hike, climb stairs, walk hills, or move in whatever way works for them. Every step helps support more accessible outdoor experiences.
Why This Matters
Access to nature is not always equal. For many people, barriers such as cost, mobility, transportation, equipment, or lack of inclusive programming can make outdoor experiences difficult to reach.
Power To Be helps remove those barriers. By supporting this challenge, Focal is helping create more opportunities for people to experience nature in a safe, welcoming, and empowering way.
