The Alpine Fund is a small, locally based, non-profit, non-governmental, secular organization that uses the incredible mountain resources of Kyrgyzstan to help the country’s most vulnerable youth challenge themselves for future success.

 
We offer children and young adults from orphanages and street markets the chance to escape the confines of their daily surroundings and challenge themselves in a mountain environment. Through hikes, climbs, education programs,  individual mentoring, and college scholarships we seek to gain the trust of these youth and work with them to brighten their future through education and mountain adventure.

 

Path to the Summit Scholarship

Our most recent initiative has long been a dream of the Alpine Fund - to help our Alpine Interns reach a higher summit - that of achieving a higher education. With this goal in mind the Alpine Fund is proud to announce the Path to the Summit Scholarship.

At this time with the support of our donors we are helping 4 youth from our programs reach the dream of achieving a higher education at local universities and colleges.

The scholarship will help youth that have proven themselves to be leaders in our programs a chance to continue their education. This scholarship will motivate the younger students as they see their peers crossing that bridge to a successful future.

For more information on the scholarship program and how you can give motivated youth a chance to continue their education please see:
