About Elevate Youth (EY) 

EY is dedicated to sparking a lifelong love of the outdoors and elevating the next generation of diverse environmental stewards. EY collaborates with Boston area schools, community organizations, and volunteer mentors to facilitate outdoor enrichment programs for underserved youth as a way to foster agency, encourage holistic, healthy lifestyles, and equip youth with critical life skills so they can reach their full potential. EY programs are 100% free for all youth, and include transportation, equipment, instructors/guides, healthy provisions, and weather-appropriate clothing. Since launching in 2018, EY has empowered 1110 students and led 665 outdoor trips and enrichment sessions. To discover more, check out this short video and visit elevateyouth.org.
