What if you grew up and never experienced the coast or other places of beauty in the outdoors?
Unfortunately this is the reality for many of our families who often face transportation, economic, or accessibility barriers. With your help, we will construct a Space for Meaningful Outdoor Recreation and Education (S’MORE) at Andrew Molera State Park in Big Sur, primarily for youth and family programs.
