W.I.L.D. Scholarship Fund
The W.I.L.D. Scholarship Fund supports Back to Earth's commitment to make our offerings available to any young person who feels called, regardless of their family’s financial circumstances. To learn more about applying for WSF scholarship support click here .
“Since our founding in 2014, Back to Earth has done everything possible to make sure that every teen who feels called is able to participate in a W.I.L.D. program. The good news is that the demand for this work is growing, and so the need for this funding is growing as well. In 2023, we granted around $40,000 in tuition assistance, and in 2024 that grew to roughly $52,000. We expect this year it will keep growing.
If you are able to support our commitment - to make sure no teen is turned away for lack of funds - please do so by donating to the W.I.L.D. Scholarship Fund. The money we raise allows us to offer direct tuition assistance and outreach to young people who have been historically underrepresented in wilderness programs and expeditionary learning. No amount is too small.
If you would like to donate via check, please send a check payable to Back to Earth Nature Connection Incto 1925 Vine Street, Berkeley CA 94709.
