Your Champion: Great Lakes Northern Outfitter
At Great Lakes, we love the great outdoors. The lakes we grew up going to hold a special place in our hearts and we want to help preserve that for future generations to enjoy. So, we created The Freshwater Initiative – an ongoing and collaborative campaign to partner with various organizations tackling different issues that help preserve our beautiful lakes.
This year, Great Lakes is excited to continue partnering with Minneapolis-based non-profit Wilderness Inquiry to help support their efforts to provide inclusive outdoor access for all. Founded in 1978, Wilderness Inquiry facilitates opportunities for urban youth, individuals with disabilities, and other nontraditional users of public lands and waterways. Through their programs such as “Canoemobile,” “Gateway to Adventure,” and “Outdoor Career Academy”, Wilderness Inquiry helps introduce people of all ages, backgrounds, and abilities to the outdoors in positive, life-changing ways. By donating to Wilderness Inquiry, you can help provide scholarships for those with financial need, support services for people with disabilities, and programs for urban youth.
