Through Basecamp - our signature outdoor program - participants build confidence, and form lasting connections. Gifts help make Basecamp possible by covering the trip fees and removing financial barriers so that any student can participate.
With this funding, we will be able to provide students with an opportunity to start their college journey in the outdoors, forming close bonds and grow into leadership roles. Our $5,000 fundraising goal will help to support two more years of this life-changing program. Your support helps grow the next generation of outdoor leaders and ensures Basecamp remains a powerful entry point to the Hoofer community. Thank you for your support and consideration!

Please feel free to share to family members and other
Hoofer Alum! 🏕️🥾
