Volunteering at Outdoor Promise gave me the opportunity to be part of something very special. The leadership at Outdoor Promise sincerely cares about their community, its youth, and the environment. As a volunteer I got to see first hand the relationships and trust the OP team was building with those they serve. Wherever OP was present, in a classroom of a inner city school, to a youth program in the great outdoors, or a tree planting event for the community they were fully present to support and inspire those around them by leading the way and being the change they want to see. The tracks they are leaving behind should be followed because they are leading us to a better place. Thank you OP for allowing me to be part of your mission. #proudvolunteer

Outdoor Promise has allowed me to work directly with my community to improve our quality of life. Through this work, I've developed skills such as canvassing, data organizing, and various arborist skills and knowledge! The experiences I've had during my time with Outdoor Promise will stick with me for the rest of my life.

Outdoor Promise lead a super beneficial and rewarding educational day in the Dominican Republic. Outdoor Promise focused on teaching STEM principles using the natural world. It was aimed at students in low income schools which exposed them to fundamental and educational ideas. I’m sure they were left with a valuable experience that they will carry for the rest of their lives. Outdoor Promise is an amazing Non-Profit, making real change.

First and foremost I would like to say that I have experienced Outdoor Promise nonprofit organization since the beginning and I have learned to appreciate and love the outdoors from the hikes to the beautiful site seeing to the exotic animals we are not used to see. I have also volunteered in Outdoor Promise after school programs to help the youth become more involved with the outdoor activities.

Outdoor Promise is truly a life changing non-profit. My fondest experience with Outdoor Promise was going to the Dominican Republic with them. We taught SO MANY kids about naturalism. We help the kids built cars that would operate/move by the sun light hitting it.

The face of these kids were magical & to know that Outdoor Promise was the reason for that gave me a lot of purpose. Outdoor Promise cares about the youth a lot. The youth is the future. The youth will take care of our Earth when us older folks are no longer on Earth. I must say that Outdoor Promise is the source of teaching us how to care of our home; Earth.
