Achieve Tahoe

10 out of 5 stars! How can you possibly rate a company that has allowed me to open a chapter in my book of life, that I thought was permanently closed. My husband and I, and 2 other children, have been skiing together for years. We always leave my oldest son with disabilities at home. He watches us drive away and we spend these lovely days on the slopes, without him. It’s so happy to see my other kids thrive, and painful to know we’re not together and complete. I then found Achieve Tahoe. And it all changed! A few days ago, for our first time ever, our family was together on the slopes. He had his first lesson by two sweet, patient, lovely skiers. We got to ride the gondola with him, be on the mountain with him, watch him do his lesson, eat in the lodge, and spend the day as a real ski family!! The 2 coaches, Josephine and Trevor were rays of light. Constant cheerleaders. Believers that he could learn to ski. They weren’t phased by his hand flapping or funny noises. His throwing off his gloves every 10 seconds and his silly personality. He felt empowered and loved by them. The first 5 minutes of it I spent with tears in my eyes. I just can’t rave enough about this program. Thank you for the coaches and donors and everyone behind the scenes. I treasure you!

My ten-year old is an above the knee amputee. He took five days of lessons last April at Achieve Tahoe. By the end of the week, he was taking the lifts by himself and making it down all the green slopes on his own. His instructors encouraged him to use outriggers, something he'd been reluctant to do, which really helped. They worked on adjusting his boots to get the proper lift and angle on his prosthetic leg. All of the instructors were so patient, encouraging and highly skilled. We are huge fans of the organization and can't wait to ski with them again.

Amazing Program and Amazing People! Blessed to have them in our World! Please Support and Donate!

I'm so happy with these guys, wow!! Our little boy had such fun. We seek them out at least once every season.

Been coming here for years with my son who has autism. He grows so much more as a person every time we visit. Truly thankful to everyone who is part of this organization. They truly embody this quote: Imagine with all your mind, believe with all your heart, achieve with all your might.

Awesome instructors and a worthy organization. They can help almost anyone, with nearly any disability, get up on the slopes. If you or a relative has a disability of some kind (paraplegia, quadriplegia, stroke, epilepsy, autism, intellectual disability, amputation) and you would like to go skiing, it's totally worth calling them to see if they can help you get up on the slopes...and chances are ..they can.

The folks who work here are amazing! We felt totally at ease letting our fragile boned daughter rip up the slopes. Thank you so much for making a dream come true for our little girl. We will be back!

The staffs are great! My son made good progress in just a couple hours of practice. Highly recommended.
