My Travel Story

Hello!
We are Willson scholars and staff in Cleveland, Ohio. We feel strongly about working within the urban education setting to provide equitable access to the outdoors. We hope to work together, with you, to ensure our students understand that we are an integral part of nature and that our daily activities and choices impact our ecological health, locally and globally. We've had the opportunity to explore our local national park, Cuyahoga Valley National Park. The inspiration and insight seen in the scholars who attended the program was transformative. Through hard work and dedicated efforts, we've planned and educational trip to NatureBridge-Olympic National Park. This will be some of the students' first time on a plane, away from, their home communities, and traveling to another state. It's a really big deal! 

We are asking you to join us on this mission to share our nations beauty and environmental field education with our Cleveland youth. The funds you donate will support ticket fees and transportation to and from the park. This is the trip of a lifetime for both our students and staff. We are extremely grateful, humbled and appreciative of your consideration and support in our community. 

Reapectfully, 
Willson Students and Staff
