Climbing for ROMP

11th Annual Climbing for ROMP

Climbing for ROMP was established in 2015 to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). It has since become a global movement, highlighting the importance of access to prosthetic care and the international significance of legislation protecting rights for those with disabilities.

Since its inception, Climbing for ROMP has achieved remarkable milestones: 350+ climbs across 35 countries and 47 U.S. states, with 2,500+ climbers raising $1.1M and delivering 733 prostheses and adjunct services to underserved patients in the Americas.

This year’s Climbing for ROMP will take a team of 20 adaptive athletes, disability rights advocates, and ROMP patients for an attempt on Ecuador’s second tallest peak, Cotopaxi (19,347ft / 5,897m). Together the team will raise both awareness and money to support ROMP’s mission to ensure access to high-quality prosthetic care for underserved people, improving their mobility and independence.

Support this year’s team goal of $165,000 or join the team in solidarity and raise money on your own or through local climbs here.
