The Taylor James Steeves Foundation (TJSF) was founded in 2018 after the loss of Taylor Steeves. Taylor was diagnosed with a genetic form of lung cancer just days before his 30th birthday and fought the disease for 1 year before losing his battle.

Through fundraising events, like the annual Tay’s Summit Hiking Challenge, they work to provide financial to people and families going through a genetic lung cancer diagnosis. The Tay’s Summit Hiking Challenge kicks off September 13th and runs through October 13th, the best time of year for hiking!

Nick wraps up his Summer Four-Thousand Footers with hikes of The Twins and Waumbek and gets ready to head to the Adirondacks, Josh has been busy coaching soccer, and we learn about the touching story of Taylor Steeves, his battle with genetic lung cancer, and how he inspired his friends and family to setup the TJSF to give aid to those fighting genetic forms of lung cancer!

This year I will (again) be participating the Tay’s Summit Challenge 2024 which raises money for the aid of those fighting genetic forms of lung cancer! SCLC took my Dad and the Taylor James Steeves Foundation is doing amazing work to help those suffering from genetic forms of this awful disease!

I'm planning on kicking off my hiking in the Adirondack High Peaks on Friday with a loop including around 5000' of elevation gain, please help me on the fundraising side by donating to this wonderful event and cause!

I will be participating in Tay’s Summit Challenge. From September 13th to October 13th, I will hike mountains as much as possible. This challenge will raise funds for the Taylor James Steeves Foundation, a nonprofit providing assistance to individuals, their families, and those close to them who h...
