ABOUT
SURMOUNT GLOBAL

Surmount Global Foundation is an organization founded by Matthew McCurdy. Following a church mission where he worked with young adults struggling with mental health challenges, Matthew felt a desire to help.  Surmount Global Foundation was established to meet that desire.  Here we provide a variety of opportunities, tools, and resources to help people in need.  We currently have four main programs we operate:

​

1. The first opportunity is a global services and connection program called IGOAL - Initiative for Global Opportunities and Learning.  At IGOAL individuals from across the globe connect via technology to collaborate on programs that will bless the lives of others.  At IGOAL we provide an educational and step-by-step program helping youth become more resilient in their day-to-day life. This program focuses on developing resiliency skills to manage stress in social, mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual areas of life. IGOAL team members work to develop software applications and action-oriented content to help participants benefit from the resiliency tool.  This is a win-win opportunity for everyone involved.  Not only does this program help others become more resilient, it also allows IGOAL team members the opportunity to develop their own resiliency and gain tremendous career-enhancing skills.

2. The second opportunity is our step-by-step education training tool that teaches principles of resiliency. This application allows individuals to select focus areas and goals to practice every day as they work to develop personal resiliency skills.  This tool (developed and enhanced by our IGOAL team, see #1)) provides action-oriented resiliency skills for those seeking to find greater success and joy in their life.

3. O

Moving forward, we will be working to develop other worthwhile opportunities in the field of self-reliance, skills development, and career enhancement.  Additionally, we will be joining forces with other non-profit organizations to provide learning and development opportunities for our participants and volunteers.

 

As a non-profit organization, we will also offer a variety of community events such as our annual fun-run, local service projects, fund raising opportunities, and other efforts that bring the community together.  Each of these community events will provide opportunities for participants to serve their community and learn skills that will bless their life.
