How Does Over the Edge Work?
Each participant has the opportunity to rappel down 20 stories of The Highline building on event day by meeting a fundraising goal of $1,000. For those who prefer teamwork, we’re offering teams of three participants with a shared goal of $3,000—perfect for fundraising together and doubling the fun!
Here’s how you can participate:
Raise $1,000 individually or $3,000 as a team to secure your spot to rappel.
Leverage your network to rally support for Siena Francis House and help individuals experiencing homelessness find stability and safe housing.
You do not need any rappelling experience—we’ll provide training on event day to ensure safety and fun for everyone.
Once you meet your fundraising goal, you’re ready to take the leap!
Don’t worry—if you don’t meet your fundraising goal, the funds raised will still make an immediate impact on the thousands of individuals Siena Francis House serves each year. Every dollar you donate inspires hope to those on their path to safe, permanent housing.
Take the challenge, have a blast, and make a difference!
