Project Title: Adaptive Recreation for Children and Young Adults with Disabilities
Project Description:

Outdoors for All Foundation respectfully seeks a grant from the Charles and Joan Hermanowski Foundation grant that will help underwrite our adaptive recreation programs for children and youth aged 7 to 18. These programs include a range of activities such as day camps, cycling, rock climbing, and more. Our summer camps are designed to provide an inclusive environment where youth with disabilities can fully engage in outdoor recreational activities alongside their peers, while also building on their individual capabilities.

The emphasis of our programs is to create experiences that facilitate personal growth, promote self-confidence and nurture independence. The interactions during these outdoor activities are often pivotal in enhancing the communication skills of our young participants. They offer an enriching space where they can form genuine friendships, expand their social networks, and reduce feelings of isolation.

Moreover, these adaptive recreation activities are not merely about enjoyment and camaraderie. They challenge the youth to explore their limits, to foster resilience, and to adopt a healthy and active lifestyle, which significantly impacts their well-being.

Total Project Budget: $10,000
