Empower the Next Generation of Adventurers
Your generosity makes an incredible impact, no matter the size of your gift. At Sahale Outdoors, we are committed to breaking down barriers to outdoor education and adventure for youth and adults from marginalized communities. With programs rooted in inclusivity, equity, and stewardship, our mission is to ensure everyone feels a sense of belonging in nature while fostering growth, leadership, and a lifelong connection to the outdoors.
Many of our programs operate at or below cost, thanks to our sliding scale pricing that ensures financial challenges don’t prevent participation. This approach means we rely on the support of donors like you to sustain and grow these transformative experiences.
🌲 How Your Donation Helps:
Provides scholarships for youth to attend life-changing outdoor programs like backpacking and snowshoeing.
Covers transportation, meals, and gear so participants can focus on connecting with nature—not the obstacles to getting there.
Supports year-round programming that fosters self-confidence, creativity, and leadership in participants.
Helps us expand access to inclusive wilderness education and environmental stewardship for communities historically excluded from outdoor spaces.
🌟 Every Dollar Matters
Even the smallest donation helps fuel Sahale’s mission. A single gift can buy a meal for a child on their first hike, fund safety gear for a wilderness trek, or provide tools for hands-on learning about the environment. When we come together, small contributions create big ripples—transforming lives and opening doors to adventure for those who need it most.
Your support makes all the difference. Together, we can ensure that every person, regardless of their background, has the opportunity to connect with the beauty and wonder of the natural world.
