Beneficiaries
So who benefits from the Memorial Fund?
Your contributions go directly to support non-profit organizations leading the way for kids to experience the outdoors in it's purest form. These experiences are life-changing.
Here are some of the organizations we support with your generous donations, in memory of Carl:
Outward Bound
Mission: To inspire character development and self-discovery in people
of all ages and walks of life through challenge and adventure, and to impel
them to achieve more than they ever thought possible, to show compassion
for others and to actively engage in creating a better world.
Wyoming Community Foundation
Mission: The
Wyoming Community Foundation was established in 1989 to serve as a philanthropic
vehicle to gather, grow and grant charitable resources as an investment
in Wyoming people and communities. The development director Press Stephens
is a friend of (big) Carl, whom he met on a horse packing trip in Wyoming.
Press's knowledge and concern for the Wyoming wilderness so impressed Carl
that he named his son, Carl's brother, Preston after him. We are
confident our donation will be put to good use, protecting the Wyoming
wilderness and its fragile ecosystems. Our goal with the Wyoming Community
Foundation is to have a peak or undiscovered pass named for little Carl.
FFA Wildlife Camp
The FFA Wildlife Camp is a week-long residential summer camp for boys and girls. The goal of this program is to increase safety, awareness, and appreciation of wildlife and outdoor sports among young boys and girls in an exciting and dynamic environment. There are two programs available: Basic Wildlife Camp and Advanced Wildlife Camp. FFA Wildlife Camps are hosted by the Georgia FFA-FCCLA Center in Covington, GA.
