Hannah Teter, defending gold medalist in the women's halfpipe, is clearly very good at snowboarding. But she is an even better person.
Teter, who already supports Hannah's Gold, her charity that helps gets clean drinking water to children in Kenya, announced that she will donate her recent prize money to help Haiti through Airline Ambassadors, an organization "that provides humanitarian aid to children and families in need as well as relief and development to under-privileged communities worldwide."
Teter finished second over the weekend at the U.S. Snowboarding Grand Prix, meaning $10,000 is going to Airline Ambassadors.
You can help and donate to Hannah's Gold here, and Airline Ambassadors here.
