Meet Teens to Trails
Connecting children with the natural world.
We were introduced to this incredible nonprofit while helping a financial advisor create meaningful end-of-year gifts for their clients. When their team suggested a donation to Teens to Trails, we were honored to help and decided to send more support their way as one of our five nonprofit beneficiaries.
Their story began when Carol and Bob Leone left their careers with the National Park Service in 1988 to build a life in the natural beauty of Maine. They were surprised that many of the families they met were not taking advantage of this state's wonderful wild places, and became concerned that children, in particular, were becoming increasingly disconnected from the outdoors. In 2005, they tragically lost their 15-year-old daughter, Sara, in a car accident. To honor Sara’s memory, her love of the outdoors, and to offer a way for students of Sara’s age to have access to outdoor experiences, they founded Teens to Trails.
Today, Teens to Trails supports Outdoor Clubs at schools across Maine through gear grants, transportation, and professional training. As a member of 1% for the Planet, they're part of a global movement to protect the natural world that Sara loved.
