Ross Stevens' $100M gift creates a $100K award for U.S. Winter Olympians and Paralympians, paid at retirement.
A $100 million donation from Ross Stevens has created a $100,000 award for U.S. athletes who qualify for the 2026 Winter Olympics or Paralympics, payable upon retirement.
The one-time payment, which can accumulate with multiple appearances and includes a $100,000 life insurance policy, aims to address financial challenges faced by many athletes, most of whom earn under $50,000 annually.
The U.S. Olympic and Paralympic Foundation, now expected to fund 27% of the U.S. Olympic Committee’s revenue, will use the funds for athlete programs in performance, health, and career development.
The initiative, announced on October 29, 2025, marks a major shift in private support for athletes who lack government-backed benefits.
