Keep Latino Outdoors Moving Forward
Access to nature is a necessity. All around the country, Latino Outdoors is cultivating a comunidad of people who love and care for the outdoors. Our goal is a better world for both people and nature.
LO works year-round to break down barriers to the outdoors. From friends exploring trails together to familias camping for the first time to people showing love for nature through stewardship, our dedicated volunteers create welcoming, culturally comfortable experiences that spark curiosity and a sense of wonder f or nature, reminding all that there’s space in the outdoors for everyone.
We invest in our leaders to sustain regional programming and support the next generation of outdoor and conservation leaders. We amplify and share stories to celebrate our deep-rooted cultural connection to the earth and expand the narrative of who belongs outside.
Latino Outdoors remains as committed as ever to this vision and work, but like for many non-profits, funding is tighter now. More than ever, we need your support. Help us meet the funding challenges of the moment and maintain our forward momentum.
Your Gift Makes Our Comunidad PossibleYour donation supports community and joy in the outdoors all across the country. Look at what we achieve together every year:
