Donations Make It Happen!
Wilderness Youth Project is here because of the support of our community. Each fall we raise funds to make our programs possible, and we rely on community members who are as passionate as we are about the need to connect children with nature.
Our tenth anniversary wishes are:
- that each and every one of our community members makes a contribution, no matter how small
- to find ten new supporters who can make the substantial commitment of giving $10,000 over the next ten years
- to find two supporters who are able to give $10,000 each in honor of our tenth birthday
Donate On-Line
- Make a tax-deductible donation with your Visa, Master Card, American Express or Discover through NetworkForGood.org
Wish List
Wilderness Youth Project’s programs are made possible thanks to families like you as well as supporters in the community. Program fees cover only half of the costs of our program, and the balance is funded by generous contributions. Below is our “wish list” which we share with you in the hopes that you might be able to help some of these wishes come true, and open the doors of nature to the youth of Santa Barbara. WYP is a 501(c)3 non-profit, so your donations are tax-deductible.
