Donate to Take Me Outside - Take Me Outside

Help Support Our Work

We use a Canadian-based platform called Zeffy to process donations, which eliminates transactions fees that would otherwise subtract from your contribution. Zeffy’s revenue comes from donors who choose to leave them a tip, which you will see as an option at the end of the transaction. You may also choose “Other” in the drop-down menu and enter $0 to opt out.

Donate Towards the Outdoor Learning Gear Fund

We consistently hear from educators who are working in lower income areas that one of the biggest barriers they experience in getting outside with their learners is a lack of outdoor clothing and footwear to keep their learners prepared and comfortable in all weather.

This is why we are launching a new Outdoor Learning Gear Fund – so that we can help support educators directly with funds they can use to purchase outdoor gear for their learners! We’re passionate about removing barriers and increasing accessibility to outdoor learning, and this is one tangible way we can do just that! Your donation will go directly to supporting educators in purchasing outdoor gear for their learners who need it most. To learn more about the fund, click here.

Take Me Outside has been working to ensure that learners across North America / Turtle Island are getting the opportunity to learn beyond the four walls of a classroom. As a registered nonprofit and charitable organization, we work collaboratively alongside other organizations, school boards, and passionate individuals to help build outdoor learning into a regular part of each day.

Our largest annual event, Take Me Outside Day, has grown into a week’s worth of activities and events each October, and our other initiatives, such as the Learning Challenge, the Winter Challenge, the Student Video Contest, and the Outdoor Learning Conference, have seen more and more participation as the years go on. This growth comes alongside a lot of hard work from a small team of staff supported by a dedicated board of directors. We’ve generally relied on grants and income from our merchandise for operations over the past decade. But in seeking growth and the ability to offer meaningful and impactful events and resources to our audience, we need additional support from donors who are passionate about the cause.
