Description
The power of a two-night backpacking trip in the Superstition Mountains of Arizona is multiplied when it's spent with women who are motivated by a common goal: to help introduce more girls to the outdoors. We backpack with The Cairn Project.The premise of The Cairn Project is simple: they work with ambassadors to help them host adventure fundraisers. Then they pool the money and give it out in small grants to nonprofits that get girls and young women outside. Featured in this episode: Alison Wright, Sarah Castle, Sally Jewell, Martha Wyckoff, Camille Fiducia, Emily Teitsworth, Marina Fleming, Ashley Carruth, Licia Sahagun, Petrika Peters, and Amanda Neiman.Hosted by Gale StraubSponsored by Smartwool, Stio, and ThirdLove.Join the She Explores Podcast community on FacebookVisit She-Explores.com & Follow Us on InstagramResourcesThe Cairn Project: Website & InstagramApply to be a Cairn Project Ambasador: Application & InformationNonprofits mentioned:Women's WildernessEmbark OutdoorsGirl VenturesWild WhatcomMakeSpaceSan Juan Mountain SolesShe Explores Landing PageSponsors and Discount CodesSmartwool: Learn more at Smartwool.comStio: Get 25% off your order with code 'EXPLORE' at checkout at Stio.comThirdLove: Get 15% off your first order by heading to ThirdLove.com/exploreEpisodes air weekly on Wednesdays-- subscribe wherever you listen so you never miss an episode.
