Garland- Raising money for camper scholarships!

Hey everyone.  

I am taking some time to fundraise for Live Oak because they are really focused on making sure every kid gets a fair chance at adventure, exploration, and growth.

I have been friends with the program director for the last 9 years. We have coached together, worked out together, and went on one very buggy hike together.  

He is really excited about this next journey in the camp for his kids, and so I am excited to help him make that happen. 

If you believe in kids programming, diversity, adventure or exploration, I would love your support in raising enough money to provide one scholarship for a kid to go this summer.

Below is something that Live Oak shared about the barriers that keep many kids away from enjoying the woods. Please scan it, and if you feel led, donate.

We at Live Oak Wilderness Camp  believe in the power of camp. We believe in the power of nature.  Join us and help make sure that every great kid gets the chance to experience an adventure of a lifetime!

For many great kids across our country, big hurdles stand in the way of enjoying time in the great outdoors. The cost of technical gear alone limits access to camping, backpacking, and wilderness adventure travel. Organized multi-day trips offered by national providers typically cost $4,000 or more. This has a disproportionate impact on low-income families and young people of color.

Live Oak is committed to eliminating all these barriers.  We are raising scholarship funds to make our summer adventure trips are available to outstanding Live Oak campers, no matter their backgrounds. This way they can all feel the self-confidence that comes from summiting a peak, exploring a cave, or sleeping under a starry sky.

We are raising money to make sure that every kid gets access to great gear, amazing trips, and great community. 

If you believe in the power of youth, if you believe in the power of adventure, or the power of dreams, please consider donating to The Wilderness Adventure.
