Ski Butlers Whistler Delivering for the Kids
Whistler, British Columbia...Ski Butlers Whistler, a locally owned ski and snowboard rental delivery service, worked with members of WinterPRIDE '09 to support the Western Canadian Pediatric AIDS Society, or Camp Moomba. Ski Butlers donated a portion of all sales from every WinterPRIDE member who rented ski or snowboard equipment from them during the annual Gay Ski Week. "This is our second year in business and our second year offering this promotion." said Karin Schulze, owner of Ski Butlers Whistler. "The WinterPRIDE members love the fact that part of their rental price goes towards Camp Moomba, a very important charity."
Established in 1997, Camp Moomba is a specialized summer camp program for kid's age 6-7, who are impacted HIV/AIDS. Many of the children that attend Camp Moomba are confronted by similar issues in their lives. By coming
together each year they are able to find the type of support that can only come from understanding
WinterPRIDE is a celebration of diversity and inclusiveness at the resort of Whistler, Canada. This is one of the largest Gay Ski Weeks in the world that offers culinary, health + wellness, and fantastic entertainment both on and off the slopes. We are committed in creating safe and welcoming spaces for the LGBT community and their friends & family. WinterPRIDE celebrated its 17th anniversary in Whistler this year.
"We hope to get more members of WinterPRIDE working with us next year so we can increase the amount given to Camp Moomba," said Ms. Schulze. "Ski Butlers Whistler grows its business, our WinterPRIDE guests get the most convenient ski rental service, and Camp Moomba gets greater financial support to help the kids. It's a win, win, win situation!"
