Program Funding:

One hundred percent of our program's non-tuition funding comes from public and private donations.   Because of the circumstance of our participants, the $150 program tuition fee does not begin to cover the costs for the program.   That is why donations are so vital to our success.   Those donations are channeled through a local foundation.   Life Enrichment Foundation is a 501c3 non-profit foundation impelled to support local programs furthering and enhancing the lives of King County residents with special needs.

Since the Foundation's inception in late 2000, over $20,000 has been donated to programs ranging from community dances to Bellevue Ski School's participation in Special Olympics.   Through the Foundation's support, these programs provide a venue for participants of all ages to take part in worthwhile activities that entrust a sense of self-worth, valuable group experience and pride that can be applied to their everyday lives.   Life Enrichment Foundation is the sole provider for all funding for the Cascade Ridge Racers.   Any and all funding directed to the Cascade Ridge Racers ski program must be directed to Life Enrichment Foundation and declared as Cascade Ridge Racer funding.
