Help Outerthere Step Up Its Game!

Donation protected
You just hiked (or ran) 20 long miles in 90-degree weather and ran out of water.

You just climbed the equivalent of the Empire State Building twice(!) on your way to 25,000 total steps because someone put a bunch of mountains on your trail.

After carrying 50 pounds of food and gear up a mountain, you set up camp just in time for the sky to open up and dump FML-type rain on you for 3 straight hours.



No matter how often things go from "Piece of cake!" to "WTF was I thinking?!", you can't help wanting to do it again. While some of your friends be like, "You crazy...", you're thinking, "You just don't get it..."

Welcome to Outerthere!

My name is Al and I launched Outerthere kinda by accident. Getting out on a variety of trips, traveling all over the place and pushing myself to physical exhaustion was the only way I could deal with a major personal issue. And it turned out, a variety of people needed to handle their issues the same way, too.

So I invited these people to come out with me and that's when it kinda got turnt. Today, as your primary host, I say yes to just about anything and Outerthere fam from all over the world - representing 17 countries at last count - apparently think that if I'm willing to do try it, they'll try it, too.

Then I got a selfie stick and things got more interesting. Turns out, people do and say all sorts of funny sh_t on camera, especially when they're having a great time.  So I learned to edit footage and put everything online to show you that 64% of the time, it's lit 100% of the time! Yeah! (Don't trust my math, tho).



Since we do not charge for our trips, Outerthere is also an ad-supported media company, creating exciting adventure content for awesome sponsors we love. And we're going to you, our community, to help us raise $8,000 to step up our game!

Here's what your donations help us do:

1) Improving the quality of our content (better cameras, equipment and editing is mad expensive, yo).

2) Growing our community through some good ol' fashion marketing.

3) Hiring to help us lay the groundwork to keep growing.

Any amount you're able to donate would be really appreciated. But here are some incentives:

- Supporters who donate $20 or more get signed up to our email alerts to our calendar of events plus Outerthere stickers (shipping included). Have you seen our calendar ? It's ridiculous and updated monthly.

- Supporters who donate $100 or more get all of the above, plus an #Outerthere hash tee from our Gear Shop (shipping included. Please allow 4 weeks for printing and delivery).

- Supporters who donate $250 or more get all of the above, plus you're our guest of honor on any 2 upcoming local trips of your choice hosted by Al (that means we got your roundtrip fare on public transit or spot you on your portion of the carpool; we got your breakfast and we got your lunch. If you pick a trip that includes ticket purchase and/or gear rentals, we still got your transpo and meals, but not the ticket and rental. But don't worry, there's always discounts. Further Out trips not included).

- Supporters who donate $500 or more get all of the above and you just became our new best friend - we got you on the next 5 local trips of your choice hosted by Al (same rule as above), including exclusive invites to trips we don't even announce publicly!! Word.

- Supporters who donate $1,000 or more get all of the above, we got you on the next 8 trips, including all expenses paid on 3 trips that include ticket purchases and/or gear rentals).

But wait! There's more...

A loyal Outerthere supporter has agreed to match contributions up to $3,000, which means, if we raise $8,000 here, we really raise $11,000! Whaaaat!? Yes!

So what are you waiting for?!?! Be part of this awesome Outerthere community and GoFundMe!

And if you already donated, share it with your homies so they can support our community, too!

P.S. If you know me like that and want to help me save the 9% that GoFundMe charges, please support via Paypal or Venmo. (All funds you send will go towards supporting Outerthere.) Word.
