BROOKLYN TO ALASKA (BK2AK)

INCREASING ACCESS TO OUTDOOR ADVENTURE

Our impact


Closing the adventure gap

We provide young people from Black and Brown communities of Brooklyn, a place where they can showcase their brilliance and have access to the wilderness classroom. Together, we can make the outdoors more equitable for everyone.

 
 

Life-changing experiences

Our expeditions provide hands-on education taught in the wilderness of Alaska, equipping young people with the transformational skills of resilience, grit, and self-reliance.


Next Generation of Leaders

With 16 years of experience providing recreational and excursion experiences in the Alaskan wilderness for youth from Brooklyn, BK2AK is now equipping our ‘graduates’ to become the next generation of outdoor leaders.

 

“I learned in Alaska that life is so much more than just your phone or being socially accepted by others around you. I learned how to believe in myself, and that there is a whole other world out there. A world where your worries seem so far away and your future seems so much bigger and brighter than before.”

—Anyely, 2017 Girls’ Trip participant
