WIN Together

​​​Our Mission

The mission of WIN Together is to provide women and girls with equitable access to outdoor recreation, nature-based wellness, mentorship, and supportive community experiences that promote healing, confidence, resilience, and belonging.

​

We believe every woman and girl deserves the opportunity to experience the physical, emotional, and social benefits of spending time outdoors.

​

Why WIN Together Was Created

Many women and girls face barriers that limit their participation in outdoor activities. These barriers may include:

• Financial hardship

• Limited access to equipment

• Transportation challenges

• Lack of outdoor experience

• Safety concerns

• Limited representation in outdoor spaces

• Trauma, grief, isolation, or major life transitions

• Lack of supportive and culturally responsive programs

 

WIN Together works to remove these barriers by providing structured, beginner-friendly experiences led by trained instructors, outdoor educators, wellness facilitators, mentors, and community partners.

​

No previous outdoor experience is required.

Empowerment

Participants are encouraged to try new activities, take healthy risks, build skills, and recognize their personal strengths.

Resilience

Outdoor experiences provide opportunities to practice patience, perseverance, adaptability, and problem-solving.

Connection

WIN Together strengthens relationships between participants, families, mentors, community partners, and the natural environment.

Safety

​
