Help us celebrate 26 years of nature connection mentoring.

For over a quarter century, Vermont Wilderness School has been getting kids outside—not for a field trip, but for a transformation. We’re talking hands in the dirt and hearts wide open to the wonder of the natural world.

Here’s the ask:

Before our 26th anniversary celebration on June 20th, we’re looking for 26 people to become monthly donors. That’s it. Just 26.

Click here to donate.

Why monthly?

Because nature connection isn’t a one-time thing—it’s a practice of long-term mentorship. And sustainable programs need sustainable support. Your monthly gift means we can plan ahead, say yes to more kids, and keep building the next generation of mentors and caretakers of this place we call home.

What your monthly gift supports:

• Scholarships so every kid can participate, regardless of family income
• Training for mentors to step into leadership roles
• New programs that meet families where they are
• The sacred work of getting young people outside, season after season

The details:

• Any amount works—$5, $26, $50, or whatever feels right
• Cancel anytime (but we hope you’ll stick around)
• Join a community of people who believe kids need mud, stars, and wild mentors

Be one of 26. Help us honor 26 years of this work by investing in the next 26.

Because the best way to celebrate the past is to invest in the future.
