Volunteer Awards

Every year at the end of the season Project GO honors those who have gone above and beyond in their support and dedication to the youth that we serve. Thank you to all who give your time, energy, money, resources, and much more to support our mission of  guiding youth towards broader perspectives and self-discovery through adventures in the great outdoors.
