2026 FUNDRAISING CAMPAIGN

2025 challenged me to think beyond myself as the founder of Mental Mountains. The very self-limiting beliefs that I sought to overcome, had attached themselves to who I believed MMP could inspire and reach.

Through our partners, we're able to support one person's mental health needs for about $5,000 annually. That means every dollar provides someone with another minute of comfort. As we diversify our partners and reach, we hope to stretch our distributions even further as this year our goal of $50,000 would be able to fully support 10 participants in our program.

Please follow along @keithbatenhorst on instagram as we start our season on the most iconic bike climb in the world on Mauna Kea as we aim to cycle up 13,803 ft and summit mountains in an entirely new space. In spring, we'll shift our focus to the Victoria, BC Ironman 70.3 as we gear up for the Lake Placid, NY Ironman 140.6 in July! We'll end the season with two MMP athletes taking on back to back marathons at the Mont Tremblant 80K Relay and ending the season with Marathons in Berlin, Germany and the St. Judes Marathon in Memphis!
