CONNECT.
Meet local refugee youth and their families, learn about their experiences, how they support our communities, and how we can support them.
INSPIRE.
Join refugee youth in a “Rules of War” obstacle course that they created!
TRANSFORM.
Open your worldview, help us find much needed funding, sign up to volunteer, donate your lightly used outdoor gear.
Can't make it? We have an online gear registry to help you help us out!
Below you can see what kinds of gear we need to make the most of our outdoor adventures. Feel free to buy any that you can afford using this registry, so that we can keep track of what's been purchased and what's left.
Of course, a simple cash donation is always welcomed if you'd prefer. Thank you so much!
