Celebrate 15 Years of Impact: Give $15 Today!

For 15 years, the Great River Race has helped fuel our Canoemobile program to engage urban youth in place-based education and experiential learning.

In 2024, Wilderness Inquiry served more than 32,000 students in over 80 communities, both locally and across the country. Thank you to our incredible supporters for making that possible! 

As we commemorate our 15th anniversary race, we’re launching a special $15 for 15 Years campaign. This isn’t just about a donation; it’s about investing in the next chapter of our story – a chapter filled with even greater impact.

Our goal is to raise $225,000 in support of opportunities for participants to explore nature close to where they live, creating shared spaces for outdoor engagement where Everyone Belongs.

“The Wilderness Inquiry crew was the best! They were so hard-working, positive, and welcoming. Their efforts made people feel secure in what was for many a new activity, excited about the adventure, and empowered by the voyage.”

A gift of $15 in support of of the Great River Race creates access for students bringing classroom learning outside, engaging youth in immersive curricula that helps improve school performance, cultivate a stewardship ethic, and create lifelong social-emotional skills needed for personal success.
