All for Education and Inspiration
To accomplish, to inspire and to teach...
We are in the business of realizing dreams, and helping others achieve theirs.
We are in the business of realizing dreams and helping others achieve theirs. On this site, you will find
information about the nonprofit Around-n-Over, our charitable goals, and the Six Summits Project. Our mission
is to educate and to inspire through human powered endeavors.
We want to engage children and adults alike. We are showing that dreams can come true with due diligence and that
challenges in life can be opportunities to reach for greater goals. (Why?)
The goals of Around-n-Over are:
To inspire and to inform young people by developing educational activities based on the realities
of human powered exploration and adventure, including, but not limited to, geography, mathematics,
natural science, physical fitness and social studies
To inspire and to instill the values of selflessness, sacrifice and perseverance in young people
so that they might develop into good citizens, and stewards of this earth
To assist poor communities in their struggle towards self-sufficiency by providing basic
educational aid and resources, know-how and facilities
Around-n-Over is a nonprofit organization based in Seattle, Washington. Using the Six Summits Project
as a launchpad, this nonprofit will produce news and educational content about the journey, and share
its know-how for future human powered, self propelled challenges. It will be a privilege for us to assist
other dreamers with their journeys worthy of Göran's legacy.
A specific goal of this organization will be to support the school that Göran Kropp founded in 1996, the Göran
Kropp Bishwa Darshan Primary School in Taptin, Chyangba, Solukhumbu, Nepal, which serves 165 pupils and eight
teachers.
The incorporated entity Around-n-Over provides a structural catalyst to channel our energies
and offers the financial discipline required to be worthy of our supporters. We are exempt from federal
income tax under section 501(a) of the Internal Revenue Code as an organization described in section
501(c)(3). Grantors and contributors may rely on this determination by the Internal Revenue Service
that Around-n-Over is not a private foundation.
