Although the Olympics have come to an end, Citi has donated $500,000 to the U.S. Olympic Committee to help 9 programs, Every Step of the Way. Each Team Citi athlete pictured above including Picabo Street, Evan Lysacek, and Dan Jensen, among others, teamed up with a U.S. Olympic, Paralympic, or community program in need. Now you get to choose how that money is allocated!

Simply visit the Every Step of the Wayand click through to see how each athlete met their own personal goals and is devoting their time and talent to making a difference in the lives of others.

The stories are incredibly inspiring. Evan Lysacek for example, has teamed up with Citi to inspire perseverance in young skaters in Harlem, a cause that hits home for those of us in the New York City area.

A quick warning, I was weepy clicking through each story. What a great program Citi! Thanks for allowing us to take part.
