Chill Evolution was created to honor our co-founder Jake Burton Carpenter’s dream of helping young people continue to access boardsports and build a career in the outdoor industry. For many Chill alumni, that means having the chance to learn about professional opportunities that exist within the outdoor space, guidance in pursuing them, and ongoing participation after their Chill programs end.

Estefany and Alex returned as mentors to Chill’s Bronx program and are currently working at the Burton NYC store, thanks to support from Chill’s Evolution programs, while they pursue their education. Make a gift to the JBC Evolution campaign today to help Chill continue to support our alumni, on and off the board!

We have a goal of raising $70,000 by April 29th, in honor of what would have been Jake’s 70th birthday. A generous supporter is matching donations up to $35,000, so every gift has double the impact!
