Thank you for supporting Inspiring Girls* Expeditions at Oregon State University!
It is 2023 and with your help, Inspiring Girls* Expeditions has come back strong after the pandemic.
The Pacific Northwest Branch is home to:
Girls* in Icy Fjords, a sea kayaking-based expedition in Kenai Fjords National Park, Alaska.
Girls* on Ice Cascades, a mountaineering-based expedition on Mount Baker, Washington (currently revamping this program due to glacier change).
Girls* in the Forest, a new expedition in the amazing forests of Oregon (currently in the development stages).
Expeditions@Home a home-based expedition where teenagers explore their local landscape while meeting new friends, asking questions, and conducting science and art projects.
In 2024, we will run Girls* in Icy Fjords and continue to plan for Girls* on Ice Cascades 2025 and develop Girls* in the Forest.
These expeditions all have partial funding from the National Science Foundation and NASA, we just need your help to reach our goal to
offer all three expeditions in 2025
and be able to
inspire more youth to be more curious, courageous, and creative..
Our Fundraising Goal by summer 2024: $50,000
“In the post-pandemic world, let’s support our youth in feeling empowered to use Science and Art to explore the world and tackle life’s future challenges.” ”
