To celebrate the partnership between Live Like Sam and Ski Utah, we got together to create the Forever Grateful Giveaway!
Sam loved the mountains and was happiest with a pair of skis on his feet.
Likewise, the joy skiing and snowboarding bring to all of us can't be overstated.
That is why Live Like Sam and Ski Utah joined together to spread some positivity and joy with the Forever Grateful Giveaway.
What is the Forever Grateful Giveaway?
It's simple: We wanted to spread our love of skiing and snowboarding through positive messages of gratitude on social media.
Three skiers and snowboarders who demonstrated their gratitude received awesome prize packs from Live Like Sam and Ski Utah!

About Live Like Sam
The Live Like Sam Fund is a Park City, Utah nonprofit dedicated to providing young athletes with character-building education and athletic scholarship opportunities. Founded by Ron Jackenthal, Live Like Sam was created after his son, Sam Jackenthal, passed away at 16 after suffering a tragic skiing accident in Australia in 2015. A Park City local with exceptional athletic ability and strong character, Sam won the overall combined title at the U.S. Junior Freestyle Championship and was extremely active in the USASA Big Mountain West Series.
Since Sam’s passing, Live Like Sam has created and promoted the core principles of C.A.R.E.: Community, Athletics, Responsibility and Education — the same principles that guided Sam’s life. Live Like Sam's programs include educational platforms with character-based curriculum, strong community partnerships that provide our youth with opportunities to volunteer and serve their communities, and awarding merit- and need-based scholarships to help young athletes succeed both in sport and in life.
