Mission & Vision

Our Purpose

Our Purpose is to provide the world a network of leaders whose work will bring Peace to Humankind and balance with Wild Nature.

Our Mission

Our Mission is to give exceptional leaders, ages 21-30, a compelling experience in deep wilderness and the support to launch self-designed projects that promote the stewardship of wild nature and development of sustainable communities. By 2015, we will support a network of 50 leaders working collaboratively to achieve our Purpose.

Our Vision of Leadership

Wild Gift was founded on the belief that exceptional young men and women, who believe in inclusive societies that have integrity, practice sustainable lifestyles, and are mindful of their stewardship responsibility to future generations, are needed as leaders. These youth are grounded in an appreciation of their own individuality, their link to the natural world, and the interdependence of all life. They follow their own transforming ideas and ideals rather than conform to the status quo. They are better world entrepreneurs who work in industry, the arts, education, the environment, politics, and the professions to build communities whose citizens live in harmony with each other and wild nature.
