Hey, y'all!
Outward Bound California's annual high-rise fundraising event is back, and I'm in! This year, I'll be rappelling off the 36th floor of the Grand Hyatt Union Square (that's 360 feet) - crazy! But I wouldn't be doing this if it wasn't for a good cause, and if my good friend Belynda didn't inspire me to do so.
Any amount you can donate will help young people from lower-income communities get outside to challenge themselves and discover that there is more in them than they realize. I know I would have benefitted from this program tremendously as a young person, and I hope our collective effort brings more young people into the outdoors.
Outward Bound California is an educational nonprofit whose mission is to change lives through challenge and discovery. Through experiential education programs in both wilderness and urban settings, Outward Bound helps people discover strength of character, an ability to lead, and a desire to serve. We all know the world could use more of that!!
Outward Bound California targets low-income, traditionally excluded populations from the outdoors industry by providing two in three of their students with a full or partial scholarship to participate in our programs.

Thank you, Jon
