DNTUlimit's first fundraiser as a nonprofit!
Donation protected
We are Don’t Know Your Limit and we reconnect youth to nature and inspire a love of outdoors through coaching programs on public lands! Each year we serve hundreds of Massachusetts students participating in summer education programs with groups hailing from all demographics of socioeconomic privilege.
At the beginning of our journey, in an effort to garner the necessary resources to provide sliding scale access to groups with less funding, we worked primarily with private schools and organizations that had the ability to seek out extracurricular enrichment for their students which allowed us to serve 4-6 public/nonprofit education groups depending on the year and funding. This year our goal is for 6-10 groups to spend over 100 hours learning in nature.
To those of you who have volunteered and followed us for years, we are finally getting our federal nonprofit designation! This comes with its own unique challenges and new goals as we kick off our very first fundraiser as a not for profit organization in the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The money raised in this campaign will go directly to the following:
Legal/accounting fees for 501c-3 designation
Additional training hours in COVID-19 protocols for our summer staff
Baseline funding for 4 of our public education programs (includes canoe/kayak rentals, transportation and campsite rentals)
COVID PPE and supplies (masks, hand sanitizer for each student)
Thank you to everyone who has supported us in this journey over the last six years! The best is yet to come with your help
