We’re thrilled to invite you to a special evening of generosity and community as we come together to celebrate Giving Tuesday at Arc'teryx DC. It’s a chance to reflect on our accomplishments this year and look ahead to the incredible opportunities we have planned for next year’s programs.
At this event, we’ll be fundraising for our Nature Every Month Campaign. Your donations will directly support a full year of accessible outdoor programming for our community, bringing nature within reach for 50 residents each month across all age groups. By funding a variety of outdoor experiences, we’re not only promoting physical health but also nurturing stronger community bonds and improved mental wellness.
Don’t miss your chance to win some amazing prizes, connect with fellow supporters, volunteers, and community members, and learn about the impact your contributions have made and what’s ahead for next year’s programs.
Together, we can create more opportunities for people to explore the great outdoors, improving health, well-being, and connection to nature.
