GPI accepts gear donations throughout the year. In February through April we partner with local businesses and retailers with drop off locations in the N. Puget Sound.

Thank you to those who participated in the 2024 Gear Drive!

Join community members in breaking down barriers to the outdoors! Access to functional outdoor gear is critical to GPI’s success. Equipment is often expensive for trying out outdoor activities. GPI loans gear to all our participants to ensure every kid is able to get outside safely and comfortably. Our ability to do so is reliant on the generosity of companies, organizations, and individuals (like you!).

We are soliciting donations from the greater western Washington outdoor community to support our work. All donations are tax-deductible as we are a 501(c)(3) organization. If you have any of the listed equipment and find that it is no longer in use, please consider passing it on.

The Gear Drive ended on Sunday April, 30th.

For large donations, we may be able to arrange pick up, please email us at Inspire@glacierpeakinstitute.org
