Lake Tahoe-Truckee nonprofits will benefit from Vail Resorts CEO Rob Katz and his wife, Elana’s, $1.6 million donation to causes where the company does business.

The South Lake Tahoe Family Resource Center and Tahoe Truckee Community Collaborative will each receive $125,000.

Through this grant, the South Lake Tahoe Family Resource Center, in partnership with the Lake Tahoe Unified School District and the El Dorado Food Bank, will be able to provide a summer food program for approximately 150 children in need over the next three years.

The collaborative’s grant will support the development of the wellness program, a school-based program designed to improve the health and wellness of high school students, including targeting substance abuse and mental health issues. More than 400 students across the school district will be served through this program.
