Have you always wanted to learn more about low-impact camping, hiking, or how to enjoy the outdoors responsibly? This introductory Leave No Trace course will provide you with a better understanding of the impact of recreation-related activities, the seven principles, and how Leave No Trace skills and ethics can help protect the outdoor places we cherish. We hope you’ll join our Deaf outdoor educator for this hands-on course on the seven principles of Leave No Trace presented in American Sign Language. Upon completing this workshop, you will be eligible for an LNT Awareness Certification from both CorpsTHAT and LNT.org.

WE DID IT!! WE ARE DOING IT!!! We are blown away by the response to this fundraiser. When we started we thought it might be a struggle to reach our goal of $5,000, instead we quickly reached that goal so we doubled it and strived to reach $10,000 and, now, we have passed that goal as well and the donations keep coming in! Thank you to everyone who has donated, set up a hike-a-thon campaign, shared our posts or told someone else about our organization and mission to set up the first Deaf run conservation corps and to create outdoor education programs led by Deaf instructors!

As of now from this fundraiser we will be able to:
$4,000- hire 8 Deaf corps members this summer
$500- provides the crew needed tools
$1,500- hires qualified outdoor interpreters for weekly project meetings
$1,500- supplies the crew’s gear (camping gear, uniforms, safety equipment etc...)
$2,000- covers in field support for the crew
$600- funds 10 scholarships for our Outdoor Education courses
$585- provides 5 webinars taught by Deaf presenters

We are in our last week of Sol Fest and any donations still help our hike-a-thon participants reach their goals and help us get closer to setting up the first ever Deaf run conservation corps and continue to strengthen the connection between the Deaf and Outdoor worlds!
