My Project

What if every child could discover the thrill of the great outdoors while learning essential camping, orienteering, and survival skills?

Our project aims to provide Pre-K and young students with a dynamic, hands-on learning experience that introduces them to the wonders of nature, fostering confidence and teamwork.

Through engaging activities, students will learn how to set up tents, navigate using maps and compasses, and identify local plants and wildlife. These foundational skills will not only prepare them for outdoor adventures but also instill a sense of responsibility towards nature and the environment. We plan to incorporate fun challenges and games that promote problem-solving and collaboration, ensuring that every child feels empowered and included. To culminate this adventure, we will host a mini-camping event where students can showcase what they’ve learned in a supportive and encouraging atmosphere.

Your generous support will help us create an unforgettable experience that not only enhances outdoor skills but also nurtures a lasting appreciation for the great outdoors. Join us in empowering our students with the knowledge and skills they need to thrive in nature while creating wonderful memories along the way!
