Signature Fundraising Events
Every year, Outdoors for All hosts two large scale fundraising events that play a key role in fueling our misson.
Spreefest
Spreefest is Outdoors for All’s premier winter fundraising event, combining the excitement of a team-oriented virtual fundraiser with the thrill of an on-mountain celebration. Running from January through March, this unique event kicks off on Monday, January 4th (2027), with the opening of fundraising and registration, and culminates in a high-energy wrap party on Saturday, March 13th, from 8:30 AM to 4:00 PM at The Summit at Snoqualmie – Summit West.
Attendees enjoy an incredible day on the mountain, including a lift ticket, access to demo the latest ski and snowboard gear from over 20 top brands, a delicious lunch provided by Red Robin, and live music in our beer garden. The celebration concludes with prizes awarded to the top fundraisers and teams. Spreefest is the ultimate opportunity for our community to come together, shred the slopes, and celebrate the impact of our collective fundraising efforts!
Gala Auction
The Outdoors for All Annual Gala Auction is our largest fundraising event of the year. This year, we will host a virtual silent auction from November 1 to November 6, followed by an in-person live auction event on Saturday, November 7, 2026, at The Sheraton Grand Seattle. What makes our Gala Auction unique is the diverse array of items and experiences available, appealing to outdoor enthusiasts, families, travelers, and more. This event brings together hundreds of people for a silent auction, live auction, and dinner, raising over $600,000 in support of our mission and adaptive programs. The evening will feature testimonials from participants, volunteers, and community members, providing a chance for Outdoors for All supporters to come together and celebrate. Join us in enriching the lives of children and adults with disabilities through outdoor recreation! Learn more here.
Sponsorship
Outdoors for All’s signature fundraising events are not only a key part in how we support our year round programming, but they also provide a community oriented space that allows for high visibility for our event sponsors. The nature of our events fosters a heavily engaged audience making sponsorships not just beneficial for us, but for the sponsors themselves. We are so appreciative of the sponsors we have, who year after year show up for our collective community and create unforgettable experiences.
