Chicks n Chaps™
Mission, Vision & Values
Helping women, men and the families who are fighting breast cancer.
Founded by a small group of Montanan's whose lives had been profoundly impacted by breast cancer, and who were all passionate about the sport of Rodeo and its heritage, Chicks n Chaps™ has forged its mission from their experiences and passion.
Our Mission:
Chicks n Chaps™ is a nonprofit organization that understands the emotional, physical & financial burden that fighting breast cancer brings to an individual and their families. We are dedicated to providing support and hope for individuals in local communities that need financial support in their fight against breast cancer.
Our Vision:
Leveraging regional and national recognition and our passion and knowledge of local, regional and professional rodeo, we will develop and promote fund raising events with a singular focus of generating direct contributions to Tough Enough to Wear Pink of Montana and other related Breast Cancer charities.
Our trademark event will be the Chicks n Chaps™ Women's Rodeo Clinic which began in the State of Montana and will grow across North America.
Our Values:
- We will strive to promote the traditional Western values of community, family and friendships in every Chicks n Chaps™ Event.
- We will operate with minimal administrative overhead and 100% of our net profits will be given to Breast Cancer related charities that provide direct and immediate benefit to the communities we serve.
- We will raise money to give financial assistance to women and men who are fighting breast cancer for expenses not covered by insurance or other financial sources.
- We will hold rodeo clinics and other fundraising events to raise money that will be donated to individuals fighting breast cancer or to other breast cancer charitable organizations in the area that the clinic is held. All money raised in a community stays in that community.
