Mission: City Kids Wilderness Project provides extraordinary outdoor adventures, leadership development, year-round enrichment and academic support to low-income and at-risk youth. City Kids is a nonprofit program founded on the belief that providing enriching life experiences for underserved and at-risk children can enhance their lives, the lives of their family and the greater community.
Results: In a city with a less than 60% high school graduation rate, City Kids provides youth with the critical life skills and support systems that they need to be successful, and in the past 3 years, 100% of our youth have graduated from high school.
