A journey of a thousand miles begins with one single step.
NYC highschool students in online classes are isolated. We believe that connections with peers and trusted mentors are essential for improving mental health and supporting academic progress with our students.
Hiking and other outdoor activities increase motivation and self-esteem for those who do not have the personal resources to coordinate safe outdoor experiences for themselves, particularly during this public health crisis.
$100
Gets you a VIP set from BRAVO SIERRA, including all of our products, the duffle bag, and the toiletry bag.
$200
Gets you the $100 package AND a private, virtual training session with one of DOGPOUND’S world-class trainers.
You can sponsor a student to explore the great outdoors with peers and mentors.
For just $100 you can cover: transportation outside of the city, healthy lunches and snacks, hiking gear and equipment, facilitation, and personal protective equipment (PPE) for one student.
Let’s help them take that step—outside.
Outdoor exercise improves mental health, while connecting with peers and trusted mentors provides the support students need to keep taking the next step towards their personal and academic goals.
