For the first time, the Arizona Cardinals Foundation will host a fundraiser for the Valley’s special needs community.
On Saturday, Feb. 21, the Cardinals Climb will transform the NFL franchise’s home, State Farm Stadium, into an “immersive climbing and hiking experience” for a cause, according to the team.
The event is for all ages and will support four of the Cardinals’ beneficiaries: Barrow Neurological Foundation, Southwest Autism Research & Resource Center, Special Olympics Arizona and Treasure House.

“Our goal is to create a lasting peer-to-peer fundraiser that is extremely impactful, not only in our local Arizona community, but across the country, and we believe this is just the beginning,” Cardinals owner Michael Bidwill said in a press release. “This cause is deeply personal for so many within our organization and throughout the community, and it’s inspiring to see the passion and commitment it has already generated.
“The Cardinals Foundation was built to make a lasting impact on the lives of individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities, and this event gives us a powerful platform to do just that,” he added. “By uniting our fans, partners and community members around a shared purpose, we have the ability to create a lasting impact.”

The Glendale football stadium will have hiking trails laid out throughout for guests of all abilities to traverse, with every one leading to the 50-yard line.
After everyone’s had a chance to try out the trails, there will be several activities, including a concert on the Great Lawn.
Cardinals legend Larry Fitzgerald said on X that he is “proud to support” the spring fundraiser and used the event’s hashtag #ClimbWithUs to spread the news.
How to get involved with Cardinals Climb
Registration is now open online for Valley residents interested in supporting the event, where they can also pledge a donation.
Also online, residents can become Climb Leaders, who will recruit others and raise funds as a team rather than as an individual.
