N2
We fund organizations, initiatives and movements that enable access and support for youth to thrive through nature + nurture.
Through the outdoors, young people can experience joy, emerge as their best selves, develop leadership skills, and build power with their communities toward social change. N² focuses on supporting place-based change, national policy, and best-in-class direct service to address the Nature Gap, a term that refers to the disparity with which certain populations, often differentiated by race, class, and gender, can experience limited access to the outdoors and its benefits.
Throughout our work, we are building a unique, community-driven coalition to support equitable access to the benefits of the outdoors. We believe that weaving water and land connection into the way we build strong youth and communities is integral to restoring a balanced relationship between people and planet.
